Ugh... here is a shockingly bad stat that you should never calculate. But my curiosity got the best of me. I've been on ebay since Jan 1998 -- over 25 years. I have received feedback on 4,241 purchases (I've undoubtedly made more, but let's just use that as a point of reference). Postage today is much higher than it used to be, so let's just say I AVERAGED $3 in postage per purchase. That means I've spent well over $12,700 JUST IN POSTAGE!!! Yuck. Such a ton of money that could've undoubtedly been put to better usage. My tombstone certainly won't say I was "thrifty" or "good with money". :-|

Yes, scary to think. I have over 63K positive feedback comments (16.9K unique). Now, that is individual items and I often tried to combine purchases, so a lot of times sellers would leave multiple feedback. There are also many times that sellers don't leave any feedback too. I don't even want to think how much I have spent on postage, let along items! Despite that, happy to say that I am in a good financial spot and have enjoyed my time collecting and that is what matters. If/when I decide to sell stuff, the money will start coming back and that is a good thought as well, unlike money spent on other enjoyable things like events, consumables, etc.

Rickey Collection Milestone! I just received in the mail my 2000th Rickey item that is serial numbered 50 or less. Here's my current stats on serial numbered Rickey items:

Serial Number Qty
1 of 1 39
5 or less 213
10 or less 517
15 or less 602
20 or less 684
25 or less 1147
30 or less 1230
50 or less 2000
100 or less 2754
200 or less 3008
300 or less 3169
500 or less 3296
All serial #s 3580

I'm purposely slowing down though. I have one more milestone coming soon that will probably be my stopping point. But, still a little more to go.

I couldn’t attend in person, but was lucky to reserve #1 when I placed my order early on. So fun!
