<p>[QUOTE=&quot;AntiqueAnnie, post: 478471, member: 5464&quot;]Thank you!</p><p>That&#039;s funny I was just telling myself this yesterday.. I felt at some point I could easily fall into the show Hoarders. I find beauty in everything, but I think it&#039;s time for me to start narrowing things down. It&#039;d be must easier for me to say &quot;I&#039;ll collect Japanese ceramics&quot; research and learn about that, then to think I can do it all at once.</p><p><br /></p><p>When I go to thrift stores, I usually have the Iphone in hand and would literally Google everything I found before purchasing but that does take a lot of time and I was starting to look a little crazy. Like you mentioned, technology has really taken a toll on things,&nbsp; I suppose it has it&#039;s pros and cons.&nbsp; And those at thrift stores are starting to catch up, I noticed five Cabbage Patch Dolls in box at my local thrift store.. years ago I&#039;d would pass one by and not think twice, but after seeing how much some are being sold for on Ebay, I can see why they had them placed behind the cash register.</p><p><br /></p><p>It&#039;s amazing because if you search completed sales, you&#039;ll find things you&#039;d never imagine being sold for a great price.. like a license plate for over $150. But with that mentality, I am going to end up buying everything lol.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m going to stick to things I like and collect, that way if they don&#039;t sell it wouldn&#039;t necessarily be a lost. You made a great point, and it&#039;s to have fun and not except to get rich. Even if the thought of someday having a successful resell business would be a dream.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
