Once I get into something I get into it...

Over the last 8 months I have purchased about half of the Shadowrun books
(all 3rd ed materials, some older adventures, some older source, half of the
novels - still want Harlequin and Universal Brotherhood), a good piece of
the Battletech line (including some of the novels and scenarios - I had the
old boxed sets for reinforcements, citytech and aerotech).

My main investment was in the TSR lines - for the Forgotten Realms I have
purchased all of the boxed sets for the Realms, most of the source books and
most of the adventures, almost all of the novels (my main campaign right
now - but Shadowrun is catching it as my favorite). For Planescape I have
purchased everything - boxed sets, adventures and source books.

If I am going to start play in a world, I like to read as much as possible.
With many things out of print, I buy them when I can find them. That is why
I like to find review pages, so I can see what might be worth purchasing.

Most of my purchases via eBay. Have also amassed a good list of online game
shops that sell new and used products and have purchased many items that way
(if interested I can post some of them to the list).

Not as much as Doc - but it's alot to buy in under a year. My Shadowrun
collection is growing. No interest in Earthdawn (yet)...

Just my 2 cents...
