Will you be a net buyer or seller of DARKSIDE coins for the year 2006?

I'm sure that in the average year, the average collector is a net buyer. But since we're far from average here, I'm curious to know where we stand...

    Guess I'll be a seller; time to thin the collection drastically. Not that I don't love Darkside, mind you.

    Very slightly a net seller. Have used the high prices as a chance to get rid of some less desireable stuff.

    Definitely a buyer -- but, like Jester, I do need to start selling some things.

    serious net buyer
    I manage money. I earn money. I save money .
    I give away money. I collect money.
    I don’t love money . I do love the Lord God.

    I will be a net buyer. The only time I sell is when I want to upgrade my collection.

    Now that I've elimiated almost all of my U.S. coins (there's still a few left) and my junk world coins (still plenty around) I'll be focusing on world coins. I'm more likely to buy from members here than those on eBay, but both have their deals.

    Since i am selling off my finished Canadian sets to focus on Maundy Sets, I'll be a net seller.

    I think I've sold a total of one darkside coin, so I will definately be a net buyer.

    Net buyer, mainly of tokens (Conder and otherwise) and medals. Haven't sold a single coin in 2 years.

    Definitely a net buyer. Only have about 5% to sell at this point...

    I'm not sure, since I bought more in quantity while sold more in value. My basset hound costs me too much this year, both in money and energy. image

    Is NET defined in number of coins or in dollars?
