I find it a bit sad that men feel the need to lie to their wives about how much they spend. My girlfriend is the last person in the world that I'd want to lie to.

What, you mean some of you guys actually lie to your wives about how much you spent on your hi-fi? What else do you lie about?
And some of you are actually worried that you might not attract or keep a partner because of what your hi-fi looks like?
Wow! That's like pretty radical.
You might like to have some proper in depth conversations with a few women to find out what actually makes them tick.

It's probably a pose (in most instances) just to fit in with what the other middle aged guys are saying. ("Shoes ... blah ... handbags ... blah ... keep her chained to the stove ... blah ... don't tell her anything" ... etc.)
If not then we have a forum populated by grown men still acting like eight year-old boys trying to hide stuff from their mums!
More worrying still is that they are admitting to being married to women who are totally incapable of reading a product's name and looking up the price of it on the internet!

I think that's a little harsh. For "totally incapable of reading ...", maybe read "insufficiently interested to read ...".
Hi-fi is (generally) a man's game. That's not a stereotype; it's a demographic fact. And if female partners tend not to pay attention to the cost of hi-fi, what does that really tell us? Does it tell us any more than does the fact that many men may be ignorant of the cost of what their wives/girlfriends choose to spend their disposable income on? I have a pretty good hunch that my wife spends more on her "treats" than I do on mine. Do I know exactly how much they cost? No.

I noticed an advert for the Teuful DecoderStation pop up on my girlfriends laptop when she was using Facebook the other day... Before I told her I was going to buy one!
p.s. If you're reading this. Love you darling. X *give_rose*
We have a system.
Having to live in west London is expensive, we are relatively cash poor at the moment. We manage to put some money aside on a regular basis, then when it gets to the sort of amount that I could use to buy a decent setup, Mrs DDC uses it as the deposit on a holiday.
Hard to complain, so far this year we have been whale watching in the Pacific, visited The Hotel California and watched Opera, outdoors, in a 2,000 year old Roman Ampitheatre.
She is thinking of taking me to watch the cricket next may, at the Oval.
That's the Kensington Oval, not the Kennington Oval by the way......*dirol*

Meh, if you don't have the bottle, write it in the will.
Add up everything she spends on shoes, clothes, make up, perfume, jewellery, accessories, health spa type nonsense, hair do's then tell her to belt up.
Seriously, if you marry someone who hogs the pants in your house you've no room to cry.

I see this site is still all to pot: it seems to be giving the current date to a thread it's somehow dredged up from the 1970s. Let's hope it doesn't go on to find the 'casual racism' ones, eh?

I think it's conditioning. First of all, she never fails to ask how much it costs when a new toy is brought home. Initially I mentioned the real price when she asked and her response was always something along the lines of "What, that much??". So following that, it became natural to knock at least 50% off the price and the response was still "What, that much??"
Nowadays, I just sneak it into my AV room when she's not at home. *biggrin*
