My biggest mistake was starting off being a completist. I've since toned it down and am trading and selling some stuff that I don't care that much about. I'll be adding lots of stuff to my b/s/t list soon.
I guess on the same token, my 2nd biggest mistake was buying ROC figures.

one of the dumbest thing was mutilating all my vintage file card. For some reason I had a wild hair one day I did not like the extra space at the left next to the pictures. Spent hours trimming the card.

When I was 13 I sold my original collection - 100 figures most complete with FC and about 40 vehicles including Rolling Thunder, Phantom, HAVOC, Mauler, Hammerhead, all 3 PP vehs, etc etc for about $50 or $100. I dunno how I got it in my head to want to sell my Joes, but the moment my mom said she found a buyer and they were gone I regretted it.
It took me 10 years to find my way back.... |

Is it arrogant to say I've done nothing stupid? I loved them. I bought them. I kept them. Years later I got back into them. The old ones are worth something to others even though I won't sell them. Now I want to spend more to buy new ones. The only new stupid thing is handing my money to Hasbro; if you can even call it that.

Sold my Rolling Thunder for 10 dollars at a garage sale. Complete, in box. Thought I'd never get back into the things. . .
