Ahh yes – well on that sometimes it does get or rather become a problem when you have bought stuff only to shelve it due to long bouts of inaction due to weather or other means, then forgetting you have it and then buying another one – only to do the same thing again. Some of my gear accumulated like that. I fixed that problem by buying another mount and scope………you never know when you might need it I bought an st 80, and carefully stored it – then bought another one 8 months later to use as a guide scope off icetrades. Got a few too many filters like that as well. And a couple of cameras…
