I Really Need to Reduce my Stash

I met a guy at HL and he used to own a hobby store. He said he currently had a two car garage floor to ceiling, wall to wall full of kits. He guessed he had over 4K kits. The funny part was he was at HL buying MORE.  This dude was easily in his 80's.

That doubles as a cat exercise "tree". 

There's not as many kits as you think. It's hollow in the center. (At least mine is...)

And here I thought that selling around 130 kits from my stash last year was a case of me having too much stuff, .....this here is an addiction or mental health issue. Then again, it could be he got them from a trust/will, or business closure (?).

And now the question, will he sell them for what they are worth, in one bulk price, or for pennies on the dollar?

Another question that begs to be answered, are all of those models inventoried and in a database or spreadsheet?

Seeing this makes me feel sane now , sad that I am using this to justify my stash as a rational thing.

Funny, I don't see any Tamiya or DMLor Italeri kits in there.  Of course, I can't see it all clearly.  Otherwise,  it looks like my collection off the shelves.  My wife had a good laugh.

Solid retirement stash there!

That's funny.

LOs!

I actuaally saw a stash about like that once. The guy was on  Swanny's and had a bunch of kits for sale. I went over to his apt. and there were kits stacked chest high all up and down the hall, in rooms. 

Introduced me to his wife; she wouldn't look me in the eyes.

   Looks like an episode of Hoarders Buried Alive. Man I hope I can control myself.

Going to take 10 years to sort through and find the next subject to put on the bench....
