Hey Humby. I won't say I hope it all works out (I'm sick of hearing it, myself). Thing's will settle down. Just give me a shout when you are ready and I'll help repopulate your collection.

All the best

Mark

Hi Humby,
It pays to be a pragmatist when it comes to this hobby, after all love 'em as much as I do they're only old bits of plastic...
& the family's well being are all that really matter.

Keep one or two items that you really don't want to part with, for sentimantal reasons or true rarity value, & sell off what you can live without...I know it wont be easy but it's better than loosing a roof over your head.

Please keep in touch with the site & keep having a input with everone,& no need for an apology dude,as I know you've never pissed me off in any way!

Yeah, no apologies necessary! Sometimes we squabble but as a community we are extremely well grounded, I think.

I do worry that, if your house is a money pit, this may be nothing more than a stopgap solution. You may want to consider a more long-term solution, if possible.

Simplest rule is to not do anything you will later regret.

Thank you for the praise of the site, I will BIG changes in mind for the archives.

Thanks for your concern Baron. There are solutions and I am not desperate but its wave 1 & 2 and my Star Wars collection that holds the magic so once the solutions are sorted I will concentrate on them. Like Steve D and Thundershot said I think that the sensible thing to do is prune back and focus my energies.
Whats everyones opinion of the lot and the ASP?

As far as the lot goes...I am a coiled spring.

If in doubt, hang on to the kit that means most to you. Things work out in the end.

Thanks guys. I am on my way to sorting things so I have made a decision that I will definetley let this auction run its course but in the New Year I am going to try to complete wave 1 & 2 loose then go for MOCs of them.
That bloody body variation post has got me a bit obsessed as well. I have kept my Armadillo because for some strange reason it was my fave GI Joe.
