I know what you mean, but both 1 and 2 overlap, because "buying" is an
abstract thought linked to a momentary situation (unless of course
your wealth is in the order of "my name is Dagobert Duck", and you'd
buy anything with knobs anyway).
The overlapping of both choices comes from the fact that "I will buy"
is still not a 100% guarantee, and likewise "I won't buy it (for now)"
is not a 100% guarantee that you won't buy it... As a statistical
result, both choices cancel out each other, and thusly are redundant.

Yeah. I wanted to buy two Monster Bases, but my money was on a bank in
Reykjavik. :-)
