Lately, my collecting habits are changing up.
I've decided to go for the decks that count and cut back on the less "meaningful" planks to me. This means spending more on the lean and cutting out the fat to concentrate on the lean, if you know what I mean.
Anybody been through this stage in their collecting history? Anybody know what I mean about the fat and the lean? |

You just scored a sweet-ass salba ! True. The tiger is now roaming my office after breaking out of his shrink wrap. Have grabbed a couple of other gems lately more under the radar and will be avoiding firewood in the future. Have got some things I plan to let go in the coming months. |

Firewood = tempting reissues |

I think I remember you snagging one of the Santa Cruz Jessee Neptunes when I pulled the trigger too. Tempting reissues, but not firewood IMO. Screened and signed for a legit price from StrangeHouse. No regrets for me. |

My favorite is the Barbee Death to RAGDOLL #7 I scored from hypo88. I think these limited decks (each signed by Sean Cliver) were hurt the hardest by being reissued whole-scale. However, if Powell had not done so then I don't think I could have ever achieved it. |

After reading this thread and deciding that I regret a few of my purchases, I have posted the majority of my collection for sale on here. It hurts letting go, but selling five decks in a couple of hours makes me feel a little better. |
