My wife has talked me out of it - so nothing is for sale.

I think I'd have to try and sell it all (or most of it) at once.  Otherwise, I would start to regret selling what Id already sold.

That's a good call. You can always make more money but it's hard to replace your Joes.

Like I said, it wasn't about money.  Does anyone else ever feel a little guilty about collecting?  Like maybe it's a bit too consumerist?

And yes, olyeller, she is a heck of a wife.

Well, you can be consumerist by buying a bunch of little plastic men, or you can be consumerist by spending thousands of dollars on pieces of art, or technology, or furniture.

Go with what makes you happy, dude. Utilitarians are that way because it makes *them* happy.

And I'm also relieved to know I'll see you again at the next Canadian Joe Con lineup, it sort of became a tradition I'm sure you'll agree  :).
