Message:: [QUOTE="walterallen, post: 184441, member: 4068"]Hey Bruce your not alone by a long shot. I often ask myself why I can't seem to have a few hundred dollars on hand at all times inorder to purchase some of the coins that I desire, no greatly desire. Coins such as the Oregon Trail Comm., 1917 SLQ type I BU, 53-52 proof sets, BU Walkers, BU Mercs., and the list goes on. My problem, as might be yours, is that if I see some coins that are priced right (more then fair) I got to have them, eventhough I already have many like it. I only say this because I have many many late 50's and early 60's proof sets (silver), but I buy everyone I can get if the price is right. It's hard to control my collect addiction, but I'm getting better. You can try what I am doing now and that is first I stay off of e-bay. Then when I go to my dealer's shops I don't browze, I get what I came for and leave. My main plan is to save money at least a thousand to take to shows a couple times a year and try and get the best deals there. The FUN show is on my list. GOOD LUCK, I sincerely mean that. It is so much fun try and get "all" those beauties out there!!!!![/QUOTE]
