Pretty much the same as Vhal on this one, but maybe with a little less organization. I've started using my Sort-It App more though so I can at least have a record (generally) of what I have and don't have -- toys/merchandise/swag is where I get lost though. Luckily those are usually a little easier to remember if you have them or not.

Maybe after the next relocation I'll get a chance to open up things and display them properly.

yeah, half the problem is re-buying stuff sometimes. Talking of lack of organisation - I have a loft full (litterally) of toot. Now, bear in mind I'm a family man, so loads of nostalgic stuff running through my life, my wife's life and of course some of the kids bits we can't bin. Now, mix in a load of retro toot I picked up along the way (my first family console as a kid was and intellivision so I have a boxed one of those with several games) along with basically me trying to buy random other toot from my childhood (They're Off) and stuff I collected along the way (Rocky Horror vinyl anniversary box set and Battlecars).

I have loads of stuff which I never get round to sorting...I start it but never finish

I always open everything I buy as I want to display and enjoy the contents. I occasionally will sell parts if they are super valuable and I don't care for them much (like the two decks of Gwent cards that came with the Xbox One collector's edition of The Witcher 3; the price I got for them basically paid for the CE).
