Tom, while many smile at your situation, I sympathize. I have the same problem, and

it's compounded by two things: my secondary collection of antique and semi-antique toys and my realization that I'm getting a little older.
This came home closer a few days ago when I added a good looking Kaiser Carolina and found no room in my Kaiser display case. I already have a beautiful Packard exposed atop another display case because my Packard area is full.
So I'm finally starting to do some careful weeding from both collections. Nothing drastic, but it's finally coming to me.
Of course, I just purchased a couple more "oldies." Maybe next week. . .
