[QUOTE="TrooperWill, post: 474738, member: 9690"] definitely a collector, tried investing once, when a huge lot of 150 figures and 20-25 vehicles turned up at my local auction house, they broke it down into manageable lots and auctioned it, I bought it all, every single lot, which added up to pretty close to a Grand, my GF at the time was asking me if I was really sure I wanted to buy it all and if I could afford it. I justified it to her by saying the resale of the items I didn't need/want would more than cover the cost, via eBay ect. until I got it home, realised just how nice the boxed items were, how I still needed about 50 figures to complete my loose run, and by the time I came to sell, I sold less than £200 worth as I kept the rest for myself. not my best moment but at least I have a nice collection :D [/QUOTE]
