    hoarder syndrome??

    Hi all thought I might start a page to confess to being a hoarder!!

    a while ago there was a thread about stash and I commented on the amount I had well trying to sort out and heres the evidence !! and I admit my stash has got out control??? think I may be a psychological disorder lol,

    thing is only been back into ,modeling coming on 2 years, and had no models at the start just cant seem atop adding to the collection,. I had to get them out as really need go Thu and get rid of some the impulse buys that wont really make, not that probably build all of them in my lifetime????

    IM HOPING THAT ITS NOT JUST NME THAT SUFFFERS FROM THESE!!!!!!!

    loose kits that cant remember getting lol??

    resin and some my sci-fi kits

    top of my wardrobe double piled must be 130 ish kits

    HElp the main lot !!!!

        Holy Moly

        And my missus thought I was bad with the 20+ kits I have.

        That's a great little stash

        I always find a nice sense of accomplishment when I find a good kit for a good price.

          I think I have 7. But I do understand how some people just keep buying and buying. The bit I don't understand is why some people buy the same kit again and again. Can any stash-a-holics answer this for me ?

              I think some people get the same ones so they can build different variants, I've built 2 Babylon Starfury's but have 4 more in my stash, partly because there rare and hard to get now but mainly as I want to do different versions of them.

                      My question is why is it always the one at the bottom that you get the urge to build.

                      Thats some stash.

                            That's some stash, I've got 4 in mine...simple reason being, if the kids don't want something, swmbo does, if she doesn't, the dog does, if she doesn't, the cars do! My stash building is on the back burner...unless there's a mega bargain going somewhere and that doesn't happen very often...don't suppose you're selling some off mega cheap are you??? o_O

                              You need to build and stop buying for a few years.
