I know that my 'keeper' stuff will be well thumbed over time, and as I never intend to get rid of it, it only really matters to me.I recently catalogued all of my stuff (half-heartedly) and the spreadsheet column marked 'condition' has mainly been left blank. (Probably the only ones I've filled in are the ones that fit into my own special categories - 'scabby', 'very scabby', well loved indeedy' etc - I probably need to include the 'rogered by canine ' description as well at a later date )When it comes down to it my collection is valueless to anyone but me - but it's value to me is enormous.
