I'll buy to the best that I can afford.....If I cannot, I will save up for it rather than compromise.

You are option 1.

Admiration sparkles from my eyes...

You are right. Please expand your hobbies as much as you can now.

Not everyone is as fortunate as the forummer (forgot his name) whose wife maintains a marine tank..

However...do bear in mind these words from an old tech junkie....

The More Equipment You Have, The More Maintenance You Have....

That's why i sell them away On a serious note though, I tend to buy 2nd items most of the time, after considering the brand and condition.

For me, value for money is key factor for me.
Do not mind second hand equipments, but equipment like canister or filter pump will go for first hand, durability factor.
