I found a complete rolling chassis still in the shipping box in my closet today that I had purchased to use parts from another roller to make one good one. This is about a month after I puchased a chassis for the other roller fogetting I had purchaed a roller BUT before I almost purchased another roller from ebay. Follow?

Holy F***, too much stuff.

PS, in the future, I will have LOTS of spare Losi Street Weapon parts for sale if you understand the above rant.

YhtmRCsw... you realize it before your wife does.

Too many RCs when you discover that you dont have enuff radios or escs or any spare parts cause you built all you can build lmao,DON

When you have no clue what radio goes to what car without labels on your radios.

Have parts for cars you don't even own

YhtmRCsw... know you should sell some of it to make room but making a for sale thread would take weeks not minutes. where do you start?

YhtmRCsw...you're looking for 1 part you know you have to finish a build and it takes three hours+ to find it.

x2 for above...
I have also bought parts that I know I already have, they are just buried in so much crap I'd rather buy another one than look for the old one...

I think my biggest problem is I have literally run out of room for R/C models - I have them stashed everywhere (my wife hates it), I even bought one of those big, seven-foot high storage racks from Sam's (which is now completely full and I still need more room...)!!!

((I think I have a good ten years' worth of projects to complete. ))

when you walk into a room open a few crates to look for part's, then struggle to exit again

When you buy a new car and your wife has no idea because she can no longer keep track.

Rummage through a parts bin looking for a specific part, then find another cool part you forgot you had, try and figure what you had planned for the cool part, and then totally forget what the hell you went rummaging for in the first place

When the TV show "Hoarders" shows up thanks to one peeved wife complaining about space for her shoes.

I have parts all over the dang place for stuff I don't own. Heck, I have parts I have no earthly idea what they go to or even how I ended up with them!

I labeled mine because of that same problem.

I'm finally unpacking my collection after moving. I had stuff in my old garage, my storage unit, my office, stored back home on the east coast, etc...
I set up a cool shelving system to display it all on and keep having to buy more sections of shelves as I unpack more I knew I had a lot, but keep finding more. Every time I open a box and find a couple more, I'm like "Crap, where are these gonna fit??".

Pics soon!
