You ever get sick of your collectibles?

[ChrisCJ99]

If you buy collectibles just to "jump on the banwagon" then you will eventually get tired of them, and they will lose their luster......

When I buy a collectible, I usually go by my general rule of thumb..... "Buy it if you ABSOLUTELY love it"

If not, I just usually sell it off fairly soon after I bought it......

So to answer your question, NO. I don't get sick of them

 

[Kabukiman]

Never.

Only when I have to pack up and move...which I've done a couple times in the past year.

Recently though, I find its the best time to be a collector. With the awesome stuff that Hot Toys and SS putting out, I find that stuff I collected years ago really pales in comparison to what is being produced today.

I dread the day I move...

No Regrets here.

 

[Cloud]

Absolutely. I've been known to throw things.

Sometimes I get buyer's remorse, but I've yet to sell any of my stuff. Who knows, I could easily see myself getting out of collecting eventually. But for now, as a slightly irresponsible college student, I see nothing better to spend my money on.

Nope. I have three things I sorta regret buying. Only one of the three I truly regret. Another one (Grievous PF) I only regret becuase he just takes up way too much space. And the final one (Color LAM) I regret the least, and only because he's the color version instead of the SSE like Frank and Drac. I got a great deal on him (only 100 dollars) so it seemed worth getting him in color, but now I would have preferred to pay more and get the SSE. So I'm not sure that really counts as a regret.

Nopes, The only thing I regret is not getting into Statues Earlier then I would already have a few of my Grails at actual cost and not at a Inflated cost

 

[jinxx]

What is the one you regret the most?

 

[Agent0028]

I regret it so much I don't even like to admit I bought it. It's the Gentle Giant Obi-Wan in Clone Armor statue. AKA Ugly-Wan.

 

[Deckard]

No but I get frustrated when I don't have enough space for everything.

Hey, you're talking to a girl who has HUNDREDS of beanie babies. Talk about regret!

My Grandma has a bunch as well. She paid good money for some of them, but she doesn't seem to regret it. I used to go "hunting" with her so maybe spending the quality time together made it all worth it in the end.

The only time I got sick of my collectibles was during my toy collecting days 10 years ago. Since I started getting into high end collectibles, I'm more cautious as far as what I bring into my household. Sure there are some pieces that I could live without, but I don't have any buyers remorse for these items because I pick and choose what I want.

I used to stand in lines for the stupid things! I'll probably end up donating them to some children's organization except for the first dozen or so that I bought. Those are still worth alittle more than what I paid for them. All other ones are pretty much worthless so trying to sell them on eBay wouldn't be worth the fees.

 

[PapitoMX]

I just get sick and tired on how broke collecting is making me.

 

[Darth Cruel]

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.

I can not even imagine the very idea of this. What kind of a mind comes up with depravity like this.

Even that doesn't bother me because usually when I'm complaining about being broke its because I can't afford a collectible I want.
