Yes, but never with an action figure.

I haven't bought the same figure twice on accident, but I did screw up on selling one I don't have a back up for just the other day. I sold a Cartoon logo Viper by mistake, I forgot there were two versions (that and the 25th logo one). Oh well, there's one more of four I need to finish my set.

I never use to, but I collect so much shit, that I have to now. Indiana Jones, Star Wars, Star Trek, Macross, Transformers, Masters of the Universe, Robotech, Godzilla, Gamera, M.A.S.K. and finally GI JOE. It's a lot to keep up with.
I use Microsoft Word, cause I am a writer, and I avoid Excel like an ex. Using tables, color coating. Easy, organized. I convert it to email, so I can have one on my Mac and iphone, that is constantly updated via Mobile me. This is awesome cause when I am out and about, I can easily bust out the iphone and check my toy lists. What made me do this is accidentally buying multiples of a Duke figure. I mean, there's a new Duke in every wave. I lost the receipt, and now I have 2 Dukes. I should army build him. Right? Quote:
The other day I was organizing my collection and I could have sworn I bought a Cobra Eel, but I couldn't find it in my closet. Normally, I'll buy stuff and put in the closet until I can find the time to unpack and either put it on display or in a storage container to save space.
Well, I had decided that I was mistaken, and I told myself that I will pick up an Eel the next time I come across one. Wouldn't you know it, I found it by accident in my gym bag I used the last time I went out of town which is when I got it. It just bothers me that I completely forgot I left it in there, and I was already telling myself to pick another one up. I typically only get one of each due to budget constraints. I'm not looking to get every figure, just the ones that interest me. I just never thought I was at the level of collecting that I needed to keep a checklist as I figured I don't really buy all that many figures. Do most of you "power" collectors keep checklists? What is your preferred way of keeping track of what you got and need to get? |
