Quick and Easy Questions (please read the OP)

This question makes me feel really dumb, but I've had trouble getting my head around the Item - Spent OM update, to the point that I won't buy any Items because I'm afraid I'll do it wrong.

Could someone show me a quick example of how I buy an Item and how I record that in my roster?

Quote from the Updates thread, for reference:

Unlike other purchases, the spent OM for items goes straight to your Consumed OM. You'll buy the items as usual and add them to your roster, but leave off the associated bracket costs () and instead add the total to your total Consumed and total Spent OM. And unlike other purchases, all items can be traded and given freely. This allows you to buy items for others, or pool your OM for purchases, such as in the case of bases and upgrades.

For instance, you purchase a 250 OM Banishment Circle. Your character has 4000 Spent OM.

Your purchase log would say current post count, earned OM, spent OM etc, then:

Buying: Banishment Circle (250)
New Spent OM: 4250

In your roster you then have a "Items" tab, into which you add a "Banishment Circle" (note the lack of an associated cost), and a "Consumed OM" tab with a number (let's say 1000) to which you add 250 (for a total of 1250, obvs).

Your Consumed OM doesn't go down when you use the item or gift it to someone else! In a correct roster, the sum of your Powers/Profs/Moves etc. plus the Consumed OM should sum up to your Spent OM.
