Hey there Beerisnice and welcome to this forum! Your age really confirms the basic rule: Most game and watch collectors were born somewhere between 1971 and 1979. Anyway, did you buy all those games in just one month??? Phew, you must be rich! sAner

Welcome to the forum beerisnice! Wow, that must be the fastest acquisition of games I've ever heard of! I've said it lots of times but once more won't hurt: it's always nice to see new collectors appear every day.. Michael

Is it that much fun to get them all at once though? I like taking my time and trying to find the rarer games at bargain prices.

Nelson has bought a few games from me too. I agree that there's no point of obtaining all the games fast but I can think of one reason someone might want to do that: lack of time. Some people don't have the patience to wait or the time needed to browse Ebay all day till the right auction appears. So, if someone wants to collect the games and doesn't have time to spend then this is the way to go.. This was also one of the reasons I got my items relatively fast: lack of free time. Things are a bit better now though Michael

I am up to 39 now although I am starting to take my time as before it was just a question of getting them asap.
Great Forum by the way.
ps if anyone has any games that are not working but are visually ok then let me know.

I have to agree with Alan on this matter; for me the fun part on collecting g&w's is the collecting itself. I don't want that to be over in one quick blow. Then again; I am a very impatient person and I can't wait to get my hands on a full collection. Still, I honour the thought that the collecting itself is the main part of my hobby. ... and of course a lack of cash plays a huge role as well!!!

The most fun for me (apart from playing the games) is when I find a rare game for a cheap price.
