There's a whole world
out there beyond the likes of Ebay and the interesting stuff is still out
there and needing homes - it just takes effort in talking to people and
chasing up leads to find it, rather than waiting for it to fall into your lap
via a web query.
Personally I like that 'detective work' side of things anyway, so I'd still
be
doing it even if I did want to throw serious cash at the hobby. Plus you get
to meet and chat with some pretty interesting characters along the way, which
is half the fun :-)
You have climbed the ladder of enlightenment.
