I hear you on this one, I have this old farm house I only use in the summer and even then it is only 1 room out of 10, for my daughter to sit and draw or eat. So I started filling 1 room with motorbike parts, then motorbikes, then 1 room became two and two became 4, now I am tripping over parts every time I go there My friend, I really do need a clear out indeed.

Might be time to sell a few parts that you now realistically you aren't going to have time in life to use. It can become a "problem" when you are really into something....lol.
I know bud, it is a problem, I have half filled a barn up with them also lol. The basement is getting full of brand new lego sets I will never open, I have a cupboard full of vinyl albums I will never play, I like collecting ltd edition coloured vinyl, and I have a room half full with vintage computers and consoles, where does it stop I do not know.
Oh how I would love to pick you house...lol. I buy and sell toys so the the lego sets are gold to me. Also do stuff with vintage computers and vinyl. Never been much into the bike parts, but know they are money.
This is the sort of vinyl I collect.
That is cool. I'll keep my eyes out for any like that. I tend to focus more on 1st release classic rock and rap...rap is one that most people don't realize has value and I still find them fairly cheap to flip. The vinyl really isn't my focus, but a good distraction sometimes when I need to change things up.
Yes indeed, variety is the spice of life. All the stuff I collect I tend to think of as not mine, more my daughters, like I am just the caretaker for now, she has the final say in selling it all, when I am 6 feet under so to speak :-).
That sounds like my parents. Hard part is make sure she knows what things are worth and how to market them. If she isn't taught this the stuff will end up getting sold way to cheap. I see this all the time as I'm out buying stuff. Parent collected for decades and the kid wants it all gone in a matter of months and doesn't have a clue what they are selling.
