Andy,
It's all the thrill of feeling like you are beating the system!!
Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose!
I agree that at times if you would sit down and calculate the real cost of money and time spent you would probably be better off just spending the money on the real deal. How many of us have done things around the house that have fallen into this same category?
For example, I lost a dish position sensor on my C-band satellite tuner and spent 2 days chasing parts, reprogramming and trying to get it back online. Finally called a tech who had it fixed in a couple of hours. $150 well spent, or maybe lost, however you want to look at it.
