and boom .............it sucks you right back in
you think about taking a break from the hobby you have a quick look at some vintage on ebay! and boom you start bidding and your back in the game its like a drug
 
I feel you on that one poncho :D that's why I try to stay away from eBay. I went crazy when I first started I was like a addict :shock: lol I had packages coming in several times a week. Wifey put the brakes on that quick fast lmao :lol: she got me on a budget, I could only spend but so much a month. I know it's crazy but if your not careful you will blow a lot of mula :)

i too shop on budget always have done.......ive got carried away at some point of course i think we all have lol
 
Likewise. I've literally had to cut myself off from the community for the past few weeks since Christmas to save me getting all upset about the stuff I can't afford to buy. I'm like a spoiled 11 year old living in a 31 year old body.
 
Are there seriously any collectors (addicts) who don't overspend or go a little too far over budget :) if so they are the ones with a problem, not us :D
 
Ahh good it wasn't just me then - yep when I first started I was like a mad man!! (until the wife threatened to melt them down if I didnt slow down!!)
 
I've been buying like there's no tomorrow at the moment....luckily the wife is all ok with it as I'm only spending what I get from selling....once that's all gone and I start touching the current account................... :twisted: :twisted:

I personally i.e made the best but also most expensive deal in my collectors life (about 20 years) which really was a break....a huuuge step.....and then...2 weeks later sth pops up I never saw before for sale :shock: :shock:

In 20 years it has always been the same: raise your limit...and a few weeks later sth pops up you simply do neeeeeeeeed :lol:

I am a victim also... :roll:

Can anyone offer some help in here???
