<p>[QUOTE=&quot;say_it_slowly, post: 4009559, member: 50&quot;]Well I can feel your pain<img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" />. Perhaps time to assess or reassess why you are buying in the first place. Perhaps sell the &quot;stuff&quot; and save the gems before more shopping<img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" />?</p><p><br /></p><p>There was a time that in the search for things that I was interested in I would find something so interesting or potentially with some value that I would buy for resale. That helped fund my own collecting. Then when DH became ill I would buy things primarily for potential resale as a way to add a little income if homebound. Things piled up that way faster than I had time to sell.</p><p><br /></p><p>I find there is now too much &quot;stock&quot; for my current need for income or my current desire to sell online (though I do miss doing the occasional flea market since Covid<img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" />)&nbsp; I wander to the basement and gather up a boxful of things now and again to donate. I still have too much stuff. </p><p><br /></p><p>Over all I&#039;ve made money in spite of the excess stuff but could make more if I felt the desire to list. I&#039;ve reassessed and no longer buy (at least until a lot of stuff is gone one way or the other).</p><p><br /></p><p>Good luck to you and all of us who journey with you<img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/biggrin.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":D" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
