[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 170538, member: 84"] BBK I've been there done that too many times. Mine stopped getting the chance to earn there stuff back. It either got sold, given to shelters or tossed out. Star I remember you telling us about that. That would've been something that would happen to me. Except I had no where to store it once I bagged it. It had to go, a decision had to be made. Although Travis still won't let me forget when I put all of his Star Trek stuff into the yard sale. I had a dealer trying to pay me a small fortune. It was tempting. Travis had all the Star Trek toys thanks to mother in law, including the much saught after bridge and transporter and engine rooms. Instead I sold it to a young boy who I'd pegged for AS after about 5 mins in his presence who had thought he'd died and gone to heaven when he saw Travis' collection. He'd been wanting the toys forever but his grandparents who were raising him couldn't afford to buy them. Once the dealer stomped off to his car, I sold them to the boy for a steal. :D And his gradmother came back another day to thank us for making her grandson so happy. So I don't let Travis guilt me. lol I just remind him of that boy who I am sure got as much pleasure from the toys as he had. by the way, Travis is rebuilding his collection. He just bought the bridge.....and you don't want to know how much he paid for it. ugh [/QUOTE]
