Yeah it sure is, I think this site is mostly to blame for my addiction

Allan was collecting for about a year before I started, and in that time he hadn't really gathered much, purely due to not knowing where to look etc. When I started collecting, we had already frequently been visiting this site (but without realising there was a forum) to keep ourselves updated on release dates of certain editions. About a month or so after I started collecting, I joined the forum here (once I finally discovered it haha) and ever since I've been constantly buying new things, etc.

Prior to that, I was just picking up little cheap things off ebay, and the occasional preorder. Now I'm into everything!

Gah!

If these exist, please send some my way. Alternatively if you any of you start a Collector's Edition rehab, sign me up.

Because I'm poor from buying all these edition the only thing I can pay you with are my Collector's edition themselves.

Seriously this site is a blessing and a cruse.

What I meant was instead of CE's, get Standard Edition instead.
Even I is showing symptoms of this addiction

What you really meant though is that you have found a cure for collecting collectors editions! I will take a one month supply But like someone else said, I can only pay with collectors editions

Maybe we should create a new section in the forum strictly dedicated to interventions. Each member will have a thread stating the maximum amount they should spend over a period of time. Members will leave updates and if they go over their limit, then everyone will give them flack by saying how nice their collection has become!

Great idea, someone start a thread. I know I just started collecting, but I would like to limit myself.
