You ever get sick of your collectibles?

[Anton Phibes]

You ever get sick of your collectibles and have buyer's remorse for having invested as much time and money into this stuff as we do? Just curious.

 

[EVILFACE]

Nope .

 

[Morbach]

Only when I have to dust.

 

[King Darkness]

Nope .

 

[Mesa]

Some things I wish I never bought, but most I treasure dearly. Looking at them really does make me happy, a little bit thearapeutic, and probably a little crazy, but I definitely don't regret finding this great hobby.

 

[Detale78]

Yeah since there's a few items right now I just can't seem to sell off. But the items I love no remorse.

 

[The Craw]

not really. i buy what i like and i cancel alot of stuff i don't really feel i need, when it's ready to ship. sometimes something looks so cool that you order it without a second's thought but after a year on preorder you lose interest. that's what keeps me from getting collectibles i would "get sick of" in the future.

 

[shocktrooper_au]

Yeah, but mostly the old hasbro stuff

 

[plasmid303]

Sometimes. With some items. And with certain ways certain companies present those items to us.

 

[The Craw]

personally i think collectibles can't get to my door fast enough. keep em coming.

[Valfar]

Sometimes..................... but then I have another beer and the pain slips away...

 

[The Ween]

I only get sick of the ones I bought years ago and regret I did. Mostly action figures.

 

[devilof76]

Only regret I ever had was not buying something fast enough.

I know my girlfriend is sometimes, and she doesn't forget to remind me of that. LOL

Yes, I seem to get waves of it from time to time when I think 'Sweet hell, look how much money I have blown on these", and just want to sell all but one of them.

Normally sell a couple and it passes as I tend to only keep what I can fit in one DETOLF. I am scaling down a lot lately.

On the other hand, HT preview their Arnie T2 T800 and it reminds me of why I collect.

 

[Shropt]

I got sick of my old Hasbro Star Wars figures and got rid of all of them. Now that I collect statues and not toys I don't get remorse anymore.

 

[Balsquat]

It happens, but it is normally a sign to scale down again. Then it passes and you are able to see the collection in a new light. A key thing I have learned about this hobby is it is not so much what you do have, but what you DON'T have that speaks about your collection.
