Default Poll: Snapshot of buyer activity

Noting that Net54 members may not be entirely representative of the hobby, I was curious to get a snapshot of how often people are adding to their collections.

This is an anonymous poll.

Bid on something almost every day. Buy something almost every week. Sell stuff at 6-8 Chicagoland and Milwaukee shows each winter.

I bought a Wade Boggs card a few days ago but other than that it has been a few weeks since my last purchase.

My vote was last month just to be honest. Typically its every week or every other week but I made two big (for me) and unexpected purchases in early January that has me on the sidelines for now until the hobby budget catches back up.

I haven't bought much since last summer as helping my wife with her collecting has taken precedence. I am "currently" working on building 1967 Topps baseball and, as you might expect, am down to the last two series. I haven't been wanting to pay up for those cards lately, so I started working on 1974 Topps football. I bought a large lot of collector's grade cards last night.

I buy something from almost every auction that has my email address. Sell occasionally at a local card show to help fund my buys. All higher end stuff

I voted this week, large lot of 69-70 OPC Hockey. Been buying a lot of OPC Hockey lately.

Last pre-war was some T218s in December, pre-war baseball was some 1927 Exhibits in November. Been bidding but no luck.

My goal is to add some pre-war Baseball this weekend!

Since the poll implies a single point in a time, ie, based on today, a more interesting question might be: how frequently do you purchase items for your collection?
That might be interesting.

I've slowed down a lot of my buying and have been focusing on upgrading/buying bigger cards so I really only buy one or 2 cards a month now. I've only bought 1 card so far this year and it was from January's REA auction.
