end of an era

well folks, the time has come... i am out of the game.

with huge thanks to member AOF, we are slowly but surely selling my collection. ive been mailing boxes upon boxes of trains to this fine gentleman and he has been selling on my behalf.

i spent the last 4 days at my parents working in the attic and removed 4-5 carloads of original trackmaster stuff and other toys, christmas decorations etc. i estimate another 12 to completely clear out the tomica, tomy and vintage tomy tracks. the track sets have been whittled down and largely donated to a local charity shop. i am being good to them and only doing one "generation" at a time, so everything they get will connect up. none of those mixed bags of assorted tracks that never matches up.

everything being sold is going straight to my savings account. it feels good to be getting rid of so much stuff and see both the financial and physical rewards of such.

along with exiting this, i am also parting with several other major collections that i no longer feel the huge pull towards. i am working towards a new future. i split with my partner late last year and thus began the big clear out. i want something more from life than im getting right now, and it looks like that will involve shifting countries, so i need to cut back to the bare essentials.

i will stay around this board, but likely more of a lurker, not that ive posted much in recent years anyway.

i want to thank all the members that ive bought from or had other dealings with over the years. its been a blast and youll not be forgotten.
