Favorite Piece of Advice

One thing that I think is really important to remember about collecting is that everything will come around again. Everything! Don't stress, and don't overextend yourself trying to keep up with others, or what you think a 'real' collector might think is worthwhile. Collecting is about fun, and whatever makes collecting fun for you is what you should do. Sometimes that's just collecting enough ponies to keep on your desk, or having a whole room full!
