I'd consider that a crime if I didn't know you'd actually use these and do a helluva job, as I've seen here in the forums.
Money spent on Star Trek when you shouldnt have

It wasn't that expensive but I wasted money anyway on a tribble. That's right. A tribble that cost me 15 bux at the Star Trek experience. I went there when my Star Trek fever started burning up and looking at their merchandise was enough to blow my lid.
It was just a stuff furry ball. When I got back from Las Vegas, I put the tribble in my closet and its been there ever since.

All the money I ever spent on Trek I should have saved; I could just have DL'ed the stuff in the first place...
One thing I've learned about collecting: you never regret the money as much as you regret skipping something you really wanted.
But a few minor regrets:
1. I bought TOS on 40 discs rather than the season sets (but a lot of those were gifts)
2. I had about 100 Playmates figures and gave them all away when I moved into my first apartment. Five years later, I was trying to get them back on ebay (but now I'm getting the DST figures)
3. I didn't want to pay for Voyager so I downloaded the first season, and got a virus which crashed my computer (which proves the opposite).

Dude, don't open that closet!
ROTF!!!
Teacake, This guy had all the 12" inch and 9" inch dolls mint in box, All the Playmate figures to include the 1701 Picard and Tri Fold Borg Mint in package. All the Playmate ships still Mint in box, a bunch of books, magazines, about 30 Franklin Mint plates, All the Christmas ornaments, cards, t-shirts, hats, posters, all the micromachine sets to include the third one with the Enterprise E in it and tons more stuff. He set it all up in a warehouse and took pictures and posted it on ebay. I ran to the loan company, got the loan in one day and ran back and bought the collection.
Hi everyone
Well, I have finally been able to sign up on here after trying for months. Everytime I tried to register I would never get the e-mail after to allow me to verify.
Anyway...I love your site and I love this subject thread here. Mind if I add mine?
Like a few others on here, I have also spent quite a bit on my ever growing Star Trek collection. Though I have been collecting for many years so it's not like I went out and spent 5 grand all in one shot like some have
Here are a few semi recent pics to give you at least a small sampling of what my collection looks like:
Lets see if I can get this to work:

Here you go, you need 100 posts to include pics
I'm just a Star Trek fan like the rest of you
I would be happy to post some more pics, but since I have yet to accumulate 100 posts I guess I can't

No, you're not! -you are not anything like the rest of us!
You are more like what we aspire to be
Edit: third pic lower right, are those bottles of 'Romulan Ale'???
As Captain Kirk once said in "That Which Survives", gentlemen, I need your help:

Yup. Let me see if I have any better close up pictures of my cases of Romulan Ale I can post.
