I have three principles:
- if something comes in, something else must go - of similar size. We live in an big apartment and thankfully have a big storage cage but even so, space is finite.
- The LEAN principle: stuff that isn't being used after a month goes to storage. What hasn't been used in a year goes out, either to family, a worthy cause, or sold.
- Wavy's Corollary - the scope you use is the one to keep. What isn't used must go while its worth something. This applies to mounts, tripods and eyepieces (at one point the tripods were breeding downstairs, I swear).
Wife had noticed I was buying gear but also realised I was selling everything else to buy the "scope of a lifetime" when that became available. I have since added a note to my will so she will know what its really worth and how to sell it if need be.
