The erosion of all that is good and decent

I started my humble little reg set with a defined purpose and philosophy.

I simply want to comment on how tempting it is to stray from that and grab a cheap, higher graded POS, just to jump the guy ahead of you.

    Is there is a support group for this Clankeye?

    I learned my lesson years ago to buy like your selling, and sell like your buying.

    Madmonk--

    I'm going to stick to my guns--but it sure is tempting to just watch the ol' set move up the ranks. It's an illness. The realization of this is the first step to recovery.

    IMO, though--there can be no honor if the coin's a dog (and you know it's a dog). The barking will keep you awake at night.

    I managed to do the logical thing and wash my hands of it, but it was harder
    to do than I thought it would be.
