What do you do when you can't find anything to add?

Welcome,
1. You have a disease. Don't be ashamed. We all have it here.
2. Its incurable. Proceed with caution.

The same thing we do every night, Pinky. Try to take over the world.

Consider a new area to collect. Consider trying something totally different.

I often hit the stumbling block. I try to pay attention to things outside my comfort zone, and during down periods I dabble there. Sometimes for a day, a week, or a few months. Some of my favorite cards I have acquired during this period. Maybe inconsistent with "T206Collector" but I try to keep an open mind.

I try to enjoy having a little borrowed time to spend with the things on my "sell to fund the next purchase" list.

That's hilarious Chris!!!

Jeff, I can ALWAYS find something to add!

The smart thing to do is nothing. When you go outside your area of interest you are often just wasting money.
BTW, have you noticed the Syracuse Stars cabinet in REA with Moses Fleetwood Walker. He was the last African-American player in MLB before Jackie and his cards are extremely rare.

During a time when you're not actively collecting more items, perhaps work on improving the storage and/or display of the items you already have.

[Orioles1954]

I would recommend you appreciate what you already have. Catalog it. Share it. Enjoy it.

Jeff,

I am in a similar place collecting-wise. To keep "in the game" during my pre-War hiatus, I have launched a through-the-mail autograph campaign with the mass produced cards I collected as a kid in the 1980s. For a few weeks now I have been sending out a couple of cards/auto requests every day and they are starting to come back. I absolutely love opening up my mailbox every day and finding an SASE containing freshly signed 1980s cards intermingled with my junk mail and bills. And no cost beyond postage!
