That includes stuff I bought as fodder, stuff I replaced in my collection, brand new in box stuff, etc... I finally got to the point where I really question everything I buy, and I don't hesitate to cancel stuff if I'm on the fence; I've learned all to well that "well, I'll buy it and sell off what I don't want!" doesn't work unless you're willing to lose money just to get rid of stuff.

I have pretty much reached that point as well. I do not have a single figure on display since I have no where to put them. Everything just goes into bins. It is getting to be kind of pointless for me. Then I up and buy something and immediately go "why did I buy that when I do not care about it?".

I actually just looked at my CC bill and was like WTF?!?!..what am i doing....BRUH...pump your brakes.
I immediately went on ebay and deleted all the things i was watching/looking at. I HATE that side bar to the right that shows ebay sales...GRRRRRRRRRR....i look at it...click through it...next thing i know..."GOTCHA BITCH" I'm now the proud new owner of something i wasn't thinking about prior to.......*sigh*...the life of an addicted collector....ha

My goal is to REALLY stay away from PRIOR RELEASES...except for maybe one here and there, every other month or so as a treat...and not feel like...I MUST HAVE THEM ALLLLL..NOWWWWWW!!!.
Now new releases..well that's a different story, cause If i see me a Falcon, Winter Soldier, Kate Bishop 3 pack, etc, I'm on it like stank on doo-doo....

meh..

You and I have had a discussion before about the evil of that sidebar. I have definitely bought a LOT off of either the item I saw or one Evilbay linked me to from the item I clicked on from the sidebar.

I know the "holy crap what the hell delete watchlist" feeling as well.



Now with all that being said, if anyone wants to sell their Spider-Man from the SDCC set for a reasonable price, hit me up. I could not justify buying that set either since I had no desire for the other figures.
