I just bought a collection today. It has about 23 three inch binders, a large box of stock pages and loose album pages, 3 full shoe boxes, and a several stuffed envelopes. This will be a lot of fun to go through.......when I get time. I will get through a little tonight but then not again until Sunday. I will post scans when I get a chance.

Yes, good and best of luck. Myself, I've a more or less personal moratorium on buying new collections as I just don't have enough time to spend on them. Guess I fit the definition, in some way, of being a stamp hoarder.

It sounds like you will be busy for rest of your life. I can't imagine going thru that much material!

Collection lot ,junk lots ,dealer lots or estate accumulation what ever you call it ,they can be fun to work on and much entertainment .
Most of us have busy lives day for day and can't spend a lot of time on our hobbies . But the time we do spend is relax time and quiet time . I have always purchased a junk lot to fill in those quiet times ,it has been my goal to purchase a collection or two at auction to expand my main collection but I also try to pick up a box lot for entertainment .
