How much time do you spend each day searching for Macross items to buy?

Does shopping ever pose challenges with your other responsibilities? Kindly share your experiences. Thanks!

The evil lord Darth Vader, obsessed with finding rare and obscure Macross collectibles, has dispatched thousands of remote probes into the far reaches of space....

Eh. I'll get an alert for items I want on ebay. Now, if I only followed through in a timely manner, I might have actually gotten that darn cel

I'll be spending a lot less time now....

totally depends on the state of my finances but looking at the forums do pump me up at times!

It used to be couple hours each day when i first started collecting again, trying to pick up missed items.

Mandarake is a notorious time killer.....to buy or not to buy....

But nowadays its more time spent posting in here mwf!

I just need to lock up my credit card should there be nice postings on collectables...which is often....

After 30+ years....I will no longer need to stalk YJA for the few missing Takatoku items I still needed to find....so that will drastically reduce my Macross collectible searching/browsing time...of course, there are still always never-before-seen stuff that shows up to acquire! So it will probably never drop down to zero time........

Is there that much rare Macross stuff out there to search every day?

[jvmacross]

Miss just one day of searching and you may miss out on an the item that will show up only once in a lifetime.....

Do not spend much time anymore less than 10 minutes per day.  Got life responsibilities and more important priorities.

My want list is pretty short these days.  Basically, it's down to just keeping tabs on the cels and the odd stuff hardly anyone else wants.  So maybe 15 minutes at a time 4 times a week to catch any new stuff that may be listed in between.

Same on my end.  There is very little that interests me asides from original art and cels.  Nowadays, too many counterfeits, scalpers, and low quality art remains in the market.

make sure you encase all of your art in resin!
