does the price tag on an item bother you?

[Chopperman]

Anyone who has read my posts know I work with
a very tiny budget. I have been very fortunate to
find some nice items but some of my crosses, i have
waited years to find an example i could actually afford.

I have learned to be very patient in my collecting endeavors.

Jake,
All good advice here and I agree with them. You must collect what you like. There will always be things that you would like to have but, can not afford. I have only been seriously collecting for about 10 years and would love to have a black panzer wrap, someday the right one will come my way.

Luckily I am fond of most militaria. With my student's budget I very rarely ever go out looking for a specific item. I more or less just pick up the cheap stuff as I go, no matter what it is. After I buy an item, I research the hell out of it. It's kind of the reverse of the norm, I suppose...
