It's typical for startups to spend a huge amount of cash when they get funded and pay full price for everything as word gets out they're flush with cash. It takes a while to develop a culture of being cheap. e.g. the last time I worked in someone else's startup (6 years ago) I remember looking around the room and thinking that every one of the $2000 desks that were bought from a local artist is a server we could have bought.
