I bought a Raven 4x as my first mech...

The 4X can be pretty good now with the changes to the MG's. I've posted a few 600-800 damage matches with 4+ kills in one.

Pretty Baby hands down. But i first wanted it because at that time i really liked my AWS-9M.

From time to time i still play the PB a bit, but it is not really fun.

$60 for Founder + $50 worth of MC would be my most expensive purchase mistake. But in the realm of mechs and loadout, I made no MC mistakes. Just CB ones. Like trying out Artemis on a mech, and then thinking I'd already bought it so I could take it off, but surprise! It cost as much to take it off as to put it on.

Bought the entire Project Phoenix package + Saber. Yet I get this feeling I want to spend less time on the game and more on others, like Final Fantasy 14 A Realm Reborn, and starting tomorrow with Armored Core Verdict Day to rejoin some people there.

A whole Atlas-DDC. I hate that mech, yet I already invested close to 30 millions on it. The worse MWO purchase mistake I've ever made. *facepalm*

Any dragon. That is the most useless mech I have flown in this game.

Victor-9K. and Founder Atlas. I've never touched the Atlas and I simply can't stand the Victor.

CTF-4X when I bought it and got something like 20 losses in row. Talk about unlucky mech...

Buying a fireband would almost qualify. It took me ages to find a loadout that I am comfortable with. Made grinding experience hell.

The worst is, however, that once I hade enough XP to make it Master, I accidentally used GXP instead of Mech XP!

[CDLord HHGD]

XP conversions prior to changes that would have made the expenditure unnecessary.... That's the only one I truly put at the feet of PGI.

Other than that, I accidentally bought a CB Victor for MC and buying the Champions I am still on the fence about. But I'll own those mistakes.

[Sancho Kabrinski]

The Orion K, V and VA and their respective loadouts....What a waste.....

So I was just in the mechlab swapping my 350xl engine from one Victor to the other when I noticed that my Cbills had just dropped by about 6,000,000 cbills. Turns out, I screwed up and actually bought a 355xl for 5,798,333 instead of putting the 350xl in like I wanted to. I'm just so used to clicking through the prompts that I didn't even notice. So now I just spent 90% of my cbills (that I was going to use to get my 3rd Victor) on a engine that I really don't need since it costs me 1 ton of weight for all of 1kph of speed increase So my first purchase mistake turned out to be a really big one. I guess it could of been worse though, at least it wasn't a MC mistake.
Anybody ever make a bigger purchase mistake than that?

I bought RS-Atlas ,sold it , bought it again, sold it and now i bought it again .

i wasted at least 50 millions cb on buying the staff that i sold XD

Accidently bought an AS7-D for MC instead of c-bills...

[Omega IV]

Changed a color in my camo, i already had 2 tones of "white-ish" colors, and meant to click on one i already had unlocked, accidentally clicked on a 1000mc "ash gray" and boom down goes the 1000mc's.

Even worse, my lancemates started making fun of my *** gray, i'm not gonna say the word, but it rhymes with ash. x´(

NNOOOOooooo....

[Ghogiel]

Accidentally bought a cool shot 18 for MC instead of a 9x9 once.

[Bilbo]

I bought the Pretty Baby.

[Deathsiege]

I bought a 3rd Catapult to finish my unlocks except I already owned the one I bought so, when I went to sell it back I only got 1/3 of what I paid. Ouch!
