Don't own one, probably never will--and I've been here since P1999 opened.
I'm not sure it matters though. The folks who own multiple expensive items are the sort of people who can pretty readily start from scratch and be back up to speed fairly quickly. They have the time, they have the motivation, they're on top now and would be on top of a new server, too. Folks who have only a couple low-level characters in junk gear could easily chuck it and start over too. The players who lose the most with a fresh start are the folks in the middle. Those are the folks who aren't (usually) going to want to give up years of effort, knowing it'd take that same period of years just to get back to where they already are.
