I live by the motto of: Buy it all and you'll never have to regret not having it. Of course, you may have to put up a couple sheds over the years to hold it all, and god help the executors of your estate, but it has always worked for me.

LOL... As I have only "just begun" my adventure from collecting to hoarding the green stuff.... lessons learned are presenting themselves daily... I bow humbly at the advice.

My wife has me working on a spreadsheet for my stuff (item, description, estimated price) cross referenced to photos. Should I be worried?

Uh-oh. It could be something else. Don't ask me how I know.

I have given the wife a list......not of what things are worth but of who can come to the house after and who is not welcome. As to the values, I told her to do her research because some things that weigh a ton are worthless, and some things that can fit in the palm of your hand are over a month's salary.

Hey Rob... any chance you have a binocular case like this one in your collection that you are willing to part with?

Sorry, but no. I have a friend in the surplus business who may well have them, but I won't be out there until spring.

It was worth a shot... if I found everything I'm looking for all at once it would take away all the fun of looking.
