They're really not my favorite. I liked some I had back in 2011, but since then I haven't enjoyed many. A couple here and there, but they seem harsher and less consistent to me. Might just be luck of the draw, but the BCJ and HUHC have been amazing, so I've kinda dropped the Party Short from my list for now.

Perhaps I should revisit, and I might sometime in the future, but right now, the BCJ and HUHC have my heart. The SCDLH El Principe i havent bought in several years, still smoking through a few I bought in '12, so I have no idea if recent production on those is any good either, but the RASCC has been very good, especially MUR '13s.

It would be like seeing auctions where they're selling Porsches for $10,000. Getting that kind of car for that kind of price would essentially demand that you buy it. But soon your front yard is filled with Porsches and your retirement savings is at zero.

Problem with that analogy: Porches have a strong resale value. Good luck trying to get back even what you paid for any of those bargain sticks from cbid if you decide you're tired of them.

If you see something that will hold it's value or something rare at an incredibly low price, there's no real downside and it's hard to say no.

On the other hand, if you see something that's virtually impossible to unload, but is readily available, then it makes sense not to go nuts. Let the retailer hold onto the stock, and keep your cash.

I used to have that problem, but then I stopped logging on. I am at capacity right now and I need to shrink down my stash some more before I move.

Nice haul! @DogRockets had similar issues with purchasing. He is weak and falls to temptation way too easily.
