True True, So True!

This iS Some of the Best Wisdom that One Could Offer Any One who iS becoming a Collector iN Any Area!

I'm pretty sure that a lot of uS have gone through this faze...
I do know that when I read this, You described Exactly what I went thru! And I'd like to add... w/o even being aware that I was doing it.
I'm Not at All boasting... It's just that when I read what David had written a my Mind Lite uP... And I've Noticed, Remembering that my specific areas of interests took form and helped me Not to be "So All Over the Place"!

This process has helped me to know when & how to sell an item or items., ie... weather iN a Group or as a singles. Weather or not to use an AH or sell it on the BST or even eBay.

Very Encouraging... to Say the Least! "Thank You David".
