I wouldn't say I'm overspending. I generally get pretty good deals on the
stuff I do get.
As to total size of my collection. . . well, I haven't met physically meet
anyone with a bigger collection, but I hear stories of some people. When
you get to a certain point, it's a full time job to keep track of how much
you really have. I do keep track of my instructions collection. And I do
keep track of the number of minifigs I have. (Right now, I'm nearly 7,000
minifigs with about 3,000 of them being castle. Most of the Lugola people
saw the castle figs a couple of months ago.)
Everything else is in 66 quart tubs, storage boxes, or even garbage bags. I
don't have the room to store it all let alone sort.
