I didnt vote, cuz i forgot how much i actually spent. I got 2-3 boxes, and obviously hundreds of boosters. But that figure's soon gonna be overtaken by my CD and movie collection soon. Or at least until i get a monthly salary, THEN id splurge on cards.

I've easily spent over $1,000 on this game, and well over $2,000 on CDs. (150+) All of this without ever having job.:D

Yes, I'm getting treatment.

uh, hard to say, but i think i spent 200 bucks on mtg and 150 bucks on pokemon, but i sold my poke collection, i got 500 bucks, so pokemon would be -350?! lol, mtg i'm on a "team", we have many cards, actually if i'd sold my collection i'd get about 800 bucks (yeah, power 9 included)

i spent atleast $1000 on both.

Also Alec Trevelyan, if the Power 9 are in your collection its worth more than $800.

From January '99 to August '03 probably getting about 5 boosters each week, not including Christmas when I always get 2 booster boxes and on b-days when I get 1 and on some occasions when I get them on sale or when I get more than usual. Obviously, way way way over $1000, maybe even $10,000. But, I actually don't have to pay for them so for me $0, but for my mom and dad >$10,000.

Just look at one of the eighteen Toys R Us bags I have been trying to sort out by set since yesterday. I had to empty one out on to my floor to see everything:

Kinda depends on when u started splurging and how much ur pocket money is, isnt it? Not to mention the fact on what else u spend ur money on.

Really, u guyz should see my collection. And the stuff i collect. I think my REAL hobby is collecting, seeing the variety of stuff ive collected over the yrs. And my mom wonders where all my money went, lol.
