Well, yes, and it is called CBA and LBA respectively. CBA being Camera
Buying Addiction and LBA being Lens Buying Addiction. On PDML it is
called "enablement" (wink wink nod nod).
Over on the guitar groups back in the days when I had access to UseNet,
it was common for there to be one or more active threads of the variety ...
"My wife says if I buy one more [insert camera, lens, guitar, amp,
assorted man toy] ... she's going to leave me. What do I do?"
General train of thought was to go ahead and buy it, but keep it in the
garage for six months before bringing it into the house.
That way, when the wife inevitably asked "Did you buy another new ...?",
one could honestly reply, "No, I've had this one for months."
Alternative response was "Yeah, and I'm going to miss her too."
