I can only presume my royalty fee is pending still for 2005. Hopefully you can combine the payment for 2006 :P
-
Royalty fee? For what? I hardly think your performance last year is deserving of a bloody thing. Send me da money.

Meh, can't profit off of that junk...

This was a lot more funny before Cory deleted his original post right before it... :-\ Why the two different types of bread though? Sandwhiches vs. toast, or what?

Goddamnit. That touchy bastard. Now, to future generations reading this thread, my post isn't gonna have any context, and I'm gonna look like even more of a dickhead than I already am. Get a sense of humor, Cory. Jesus Christ.
Why the two different types of bread though? Sandwhiches vs. toast, or what?
Pretty simple. I prefer white bread for PB&J's, but for ham- and turkey-based sandwhiches, I like the wheat bread.
-
I only deleted it because I linked it in my signature line. It's easier that way, and I don't have to maintain it on 2 forums.
-
Yeah, I'm sure that was the only reason, Mr. Barrel of Monkeys.

Its $20 plus tax at the park roughly $21.70. SInce I'm a annual passholder I get 10% off my purchase.

I'm new to this. Do we count sales tax?
-
I'm new to this. Do we count sales tax?
I think we add up the entire amount of the item cost inculding sales tax, shipping and other cost (except gas).
I have a question do we count trades and stuff we sell?
-
I'm new to this. Do we count sales tax?
Yes, I usually do.
I have a question do we count trades and stuff we sell?
Yes, I usually do.
For trades, I count the cost of the stuff I bought to trade and shipping.
For stuff I sell, I keep track and deduct the money I made from selling stuff at the end of the year. That way, I can keep track of what I actually spent and then see how much I saved by selling off older stuff.
-

Sales tax, shipping, etc should be included.
If I have to go out and buy something for a trade, I count it (and mark it as such). If I'm trading some of my of leftover stock from previous years, I don't count it (reason being it was paid for in another year). The opposite is true for sales. If someone asks me to pick up something for them, I won't count it because I'm getting reimbursed for it. But if I sell some of my previous stock, I'll deduct it from the total.

Figures: $102.01
Misc: $ 43.37
Prop: $525.00 :o
Total for January: $670.38.
Not too bad really. If Obi-Wan's saber had shipped in 2005, I'd be sitting pretty right now. I'm not expecting much prop movement for a while so I should be doing ok until spring.
-
I'm keeping my totals again this year. It's gone from a "challenge" to a real tradition. The only difference is, I'm going to add descriptions of everything I buy and why I bought it. I started that midway last year, but I used to just put in stores and amounts.
;D

Not just starwars this year all toys.
White Munny - $20
So What figure - $40
8 assort Dunny figures - $120
16 stikfas - $80
Koto Snowtrooper - $120
hmmmm $380 for January , well atleast its better than last year :)
-
Oh for crying out loud. I managed to spend almost $700 in January. And February is not going to be pretty with my Sideshow Vader on its way and a number of other online purchases coming. ::)
-
Adds up quick doesn't it?
It's the online orders that kill me, my Hoth case from New Force shipped the same day as my EE.com Astromechs!
When I get the CC bill, it always knocks me to the floor...
-
Let's see...
January = $354.99
Stuff I bought:
- 400% Kubrick Han, Luke, Boba Fett, and Batman
- Carded Kubrick Droids R2-D2 w/Acrylic Case
- 2006 Saga Hoth Wave (9 carded and 6 openers)
I managed to offset the cost by selling some of the extra stuff in my "for sale" list, so that helped get the total for the month down a bit.
-
I managed to offset the cost by selling some of the extra stuff in my "for sale" list, so that helped get the total for the month down a bit.
I'm still working on that. I've got a few extras from the 3 3/4" line, but they're all very common, so they don't exactly fly out the door. However, there's a line or two I'm considering selling, so that could help with next month.
-
$598.72, the majority of which was spent on a complete series 5 Kubrick set and the chase Indy. That doesn't include the nearly $60 each for the 4 Sideshow 12" figs or the $60 or so for the EE astro droids. Ouch.
-
Well, my attempt at cutting the monthly spending in half didn't go quite as well as I had hoped...but still better than last year. Here's what it looked like for January:
8 TSC Figures (Han, Chewie, Veers, Derlin, 2x AT-AT, Snowtrooper, Power Droid)=$50
Hoth Bust Ups - Set of 6=$28
2 Sets Galactic Heroes=$10
"Other" Stuff=$15
Total for January=$103.00
Not quite where I wanted to be, as I was hoping to average $50 per month this year (wishful thinking). If this continues, I really might have to consider dropping things like the Bust Ups and some "other" stuff, or at least cutting back significantly.
-
I'll add in the exact amount later, but my rounded total for January is $63.
-
- Kubrick Willy Wonka set = $22
- Case of Marvel 2 Kubricks = $114
- Case of Marvel 3 Kubricks = $90
- M&M Buddy Chewbacca = $2
- (2) sets of ROTS cases = $6
_______
Previous total = $1382
Recent Purchases = $239
New total = $1621

Thank the maker that someone is spending more money than me. ;D

Energon Snow Cat and Universe Arcee: $12
MOTU stactions series 2: $36 (buy 2 get 1 free sale)
$173 plus $133 = $306
Less than I expected at this point, unless I forgot something.

Slow month for me, but that's ok. Here's my Feb totals:
TSC R2-D2 (Hoth) - $6.99
TSC Poggle the Lesser (Geonosis) - $6.99
That, plus tax, is it for last month. Nothing much new around here lately otherwise.

A couple of big purchases this month put a pretty hard dent in my wallet.
My Sideshow Vader was the highlight of the month - $560CDN
Other highlight was a massive box of Darth Vader goodies - $294CDN
I also purchased the Medicom RAH Vader, EE Astromech sets, a few Bust-Ups, a Pewter Vader and a few miscellania.
The good thing is I sold off a bunch of stuff which put around $400CDN back in my pocket.
Total for February - $1049CDN or about $910US
Total for the year - $1550US

Wow, March was actually a "slow" month for me (slow being a relative term, of course).
January = $354.99
February = $240.39
March = $100.78
Stuff I bought in the past month:
2006 Saga Geonosis Wave (2 carded and 3 openers)
2006 Saga Coruscant Wave (8 carded and 6 openers)
Once again, I managed to offset the cost of all those figures a little bit by selling some of the extra stuff in my "for sale" list.
April should be an interesting month as I still have all those UGH figures to track down... >:(

Another relatively slow month allowed me to stick pretty close to my budget. :)
January = $354.99
February = $240.39
March = $100.78
April = $111.68
Stuff I bought in the past month:
2006 Saga Coruscant Wave (2 openers)
2006 Saga Ultimate Galactic Hunt (6 carded)
2006 Target Exclusive Demise of Grievous (1 carded and 1 opener)
2006 Target Exclusive Skirmish in the Senate (1 opener)
2006 Saga Vintage Wave (2 openers)
Once again, I managed to offset the cost of all those figures a little bit by selling some of the extra stuff in my "for sale" list.
May will be expensive because I still have 8-10 VTSC figures to buy as well as trying totrack down the rest of the damn UGH figures... >:(

I need to take it easy this month. I've already cracked $1000 for the year.
Not good.

I don't remember month by month, but I'll just total everything up:
Saga 2:
Leia in Boushh Disguise
AT-AT Driver
Sun Fac
Sora Bulq
Scorch
Lushros Dofine
Firespeeder Pilot
Utapau Trooper
Comander Cody
Garindan
Hem Dazon
VTSC:

Exclusives:
Kir Kanos 2-pack
So, my total thus far is (including tax)...
Around $140.

I need to take it easy this month. I've already cracked $1000 for the year.
Not good.
I hear that. I haven't updated my tally since earlier in the year, but after buying two sets of VTSC and 11 exclusive ML figures, I'm at like $1,300 and it's not even June yet.

May was a bit busier than the previous months due to finishing off my UGHs, my VTSC, and the H&V Wave 1.
$354.99 January
$240.39 February
$100.78 March
$111.68 April
$179.68 May
Stuff I bought in the past month:
2006 Saga Vintage Wave (5 carded and 3 openers)
2006 Saga Ultimate Galactic Hunt (4 carded)
SWShop Lucas Collector's Set (1 opener)
2006 Ep3 H&V Wave 1 (12 carded)
Once again, thankfully, I managed to offset the cost of all those figures a little bit by selling some of the extra stuff in my "for sale" list. Hooray for recycling old stuff into new toys! ;)
June should be quiet again with just the Tatooine wave to worry about, but July is going to be a killer with Kubrick Series 6 and possibly the Endor Wave and more H&V waves... :-\
-
I haven't updated in a bit, but I was just totaling up things for May. I think this was my worst month, with some VTSC, Unleashed, and Marvel stuff all hitting/shipping in the same month. My total for the month is:
$159.62
What I bought this month to make that total:
2 Unleashed
2 VTSC Figures
Senate Battle Pack
Lucas Family Gift Pack
5 ML/SMC Figures
3 ML Face Off Packs
1 Superman Returns (Lex Luthor) Figure
Hopefully June will be a bit lighter, but its always tough to say when things are shipping. Basically just on the lookout for the Tatooine wave at this point, unless the next wave of new Galactic Heroes starts shipping this month too.

$1432 so far............
-
May was a bit busier than the previous months due to finishing off my UGHs, my VTSC, and the H&V Wave 1.
$354.99 January
$240.39 February
$100.78 March
$111.68 April
$179.68 May
Stuff I bought in the past month:
2006 Saga Vintage Wave (5 carded and 3 openers)
2006 Saga Ultimate Galactic Hunt (4 carded)
SWShop Lucas Collector's Set (1 opener)
2006 Ep3 H&V Wave 1 (12 carded)
Once again, thankfully, I managed to offset the cost of all those figures a little bit by selling some of the extra stuff in my "for sale" list. Hooray for recycling old stuff into new toys! ;)
June should be quiet again with just the Tatooine wave to worry about, but July is going to be a killer with Kubrick Series 6 and possibly the Endor Wave and more H&V waves... :-\
You really need to diversify. This focus on little things is starting to seem a little Freudian to me. Maybe you oughta get some bigger stuff :P :-*
-
This whole process is doing nothing but making me want to cut back my SW shopping. I'm on pace to spend around $2000.00 this year, which isn't a fortune to me, but it's still a lot of money to spend on toys. More than a pack-a-day smoking habit...

2006 Target Skirmish in the Senate (2 openers)
As I had hoped, June was pretty slow - just the Tatooine wave from EE and a few Shocktroopers. Of course, July is already shoping up to be a budget killer... Kubrick Series 6, possibly the Endor Wave and more H&V waves and more? :-\

PS: Why did this get "unstuck?"

PS: Why did this get "unstuck?"
Because we wanted to give Shannon the "top spot" in Watto's for a while...
Now that it's been a month I think we can re-sticky this one so folks don't have to search for it.

I think it's better when this thread does get lost.

I've been too scared to post in it after my performance last year. :-X
-
I'm already around 1250.00 and I have a stack of receipts on my desk that I'm afraid to tally up. :-[
-
After Comic-Con Im afraid to add more to my total. :-\

Yeah i'm stopping too, i know i'm way over what i thought i'd be at and my goal of only $4000 total for the year is gonna get smashed
-
Oh people, keep going. Trust me, it's enlightening if nothing else :o
I'm just sitting back and thinking of what's coming in the next months and it nearly brings me to tears.
Case of GG clone busts
Leia/R2 statue/maquette thingy
Vader thingy
Fett thingy
C-3PO thingy once they announce it
2 Sideshow vinyl figures
Sideshow Fett
400% Kubrick Vader and Fett
Kubrick series 7 master case, Luke carded, TRU set, Sacul??, blackhole stormtrooper
$100 worth of Star Trek figures ::)
Blackhole Hasbro stormtrooper x5
Lucas Family/republic commandos
GG bustups galore - multiples of clone boxes, bounty hunters, series 7
See $2000 without even blinking. Y'all can do it, can't ya?

I was just adding up the month so far... my largest $$$ month yet this year with all the Kubricks, the TRU Battle Pack, the SDCC Stuff, and a few other things mixed in. :-[

OK, I've been scared to post in here after my 'performance' last year, but here goes...

February Total
$1,119.71

Thankfully, I've slowed down compared to last year, but not by much. The guilt was a little too much and I cancelled my preorders for the Chrome GG Darth Vader statue, SSC Premium Format Boba Fett and all SSC 12" Figures. I would still like to pursue a few of the 12" figures, but perhaps at a later time...

And you're below last year's pace?

Actually, you're right, they are Canadian dollars. But it doesn't make as big a difference as compared to a couple years ago when the CDN dollar was as low as $0.62US; nowadays it's around $0.90US.

Shipping Expenses (Padded Mailers and Tape)
Well, I'm not sure what to think of the past month.
In August, I sold a lot of my old POTF2 duplicate/outdated loose figures. I was using the cash I made in the sale to pay for the Hasbro stuff. Things were going very well and I was actually running in the positive for the majority of the month.
Unfortunately though, my Kubrick weakness reared it's head in the last few days of the month. I grabbed the two carded Kubricks and ended up with another expensive month. :-[
I guess I'll call it a win because it could have been a lot worse... :P
-
Heh, I'm glad I don't keep track anymore and I sure do wish I had your discipline and narrow focus Jeff. I dropped just about your June total yesterday on stuff and that was only with two star wars figures in it. Most of it was other stuff entirely. Of course Canada sucks, but that's only part of it.

::)
Another expensive month ($250+). Not as bad as the summer, but all those End-Nab-ooine figures from EE along with the 400% Kubrick Vader were budget breakers this month. It's funny how despite still buying a TON of Hasbro figures this year, the lion's share (nearly 60%) of my $$$ spent this year has been on Kubrick related stuff (carded, 400%, series 6). :-\

Pretty well controlled spending this month; just the GH stuff and the three OT Tin sets. Got a bit of cash back selling some of the extra/duplicate GH figures, but still another $100+ month. Next month? Kubricks: Series 7, Imperial Speeder Biker Box Set, and possibly the Carded Shadow Stormtrooper. My wallet hurts already... :-[
-
Is it safe to say that Jeff is the only one keeping track anymore? :-*
This is definitely a thread that would be very VERY bad for me to get into so I'll make tracking my purchases part of my New Years Resolutions (assuming there's gonna be an 07 challenge) ;D
What I recollect:
November:
Starship Battles- 4 cases & 1 starter $384
Target Shuttle- $64
Pod Racer Pair- $6.75
Oboewan (the OTHER Jeff)
-
Is it safe to say that Jeff is the only one keeping track anymore? :-*
I lost track and for a good reason too, if my wife ever saw this thread i'd be homeless... :P
I'd probably put my year end total around $4-5K but then again i've made about $6-7k selling stuff so it balances out...

Star Wars - $617.99
Other - $752.10
Grand Total - $1,370.09
Not surprising as I stopped collecting the Hasbro stuff this year and sold off a good portion of my collection. 2007 will probably be near 2005's total. I know January is going to be expensive with Sideshow's Jabba, throne and creatures expecting to hit and I still need the two expensive Kubricks to complete the collection.

You need to start collecting Gentle Giant stuff. Really, you do.

Believe me, I thought about it. I like the mini busts but back-tracking would take more time, effort and money than I have.

2005 = $15106.89 CDN = $12160.16 US
2006 = $7960.96 CDN = $6804.24 US
Much better. Still ugly, but much better.
This year should be a lower total again, not necessarily because I'll buy less, but because I have a LOT of old stuff I plan to sell in the upcoming months. If I don't have room to display it, I'm selling it.

Grand Total for 2006 = $2995.42
Well, all those Kubricks (Series 7, Carded Shadowtrooper & Acrylic Case, Speederbike Box Set) plus a box of the latest wave of figures (Saga-#053-#062) killed me this past month (which was no surprise). In the end, I went over budget by almost $1k. I know exactly what that caused the overage (finishing up my carded Kubrick collection - R2, Vader, Sacul, Fett, Parco Sandy plus cases for all of them), but in the end, I'm glad I bought them this year because it's nice to have them in my collection.
Next year? Hopefully, since I'm caught up on the Carded Kubrick Stuff, I'm going to try to get back down to the $1600-2000 range again. I don't know how easy it will be with at least 100 basic figures already planned for 2007, but I'm going to try! :D

OK, time for my tally:
2004 = $9858.00 US. Approx.
2005 = $6000.00 to $8000.00 US.
2006 = $7343.60 US.
Well the $$$ have dropped over the past few years but not by much, not collecting modern anymore really didn't help as I was focusing on other stuff. :-\
What will the new year bring, hopefully less. :P

What will the new year bring... :P
More expensive space ****. :-*

I wasn't the best with posting last year, but here's a fairly accurate total of my spending. More than I had hoped to spend, as always, but I'm hoping to start cutting back a little more this year. Especially after the Mrs. asked to see the spreadsheets :P, and plus, now with a little one on the way later this year. Here's how things ended up:
Star Wars - $793.77
Non Star Wars - $377.58
Total Spending - $1171.35
I'm shooting for half that (or less) in 2007, we'll see how things go :). I'm keeping close track once again. Just for reference the most expensive thing I bought last year overall was the Gentle Giant Chewbacca Mini Bust - $50.00 (+shipping). A couple other purchases in that same range, but I think that was the highest.

You have more willpower than I do, I had 24 separate purchases totaling $50 or more, with a bunch more in the $40 to $45 range. My most expensive purchase was the Kubrick Indy and blue Snaggletooth for about $210 total.

Some of my highlights:
- ROTS Darth Vader bust
- 400% Wicket Luke & Han Stormtroopers
- Sideshow PF Darth Vader
- Medicom RAH Darth Vader
- 400% Kubrick Wicket
- Japanese ROTS Bottle Caps
- Sideshow PF Obi-Wan Kenobi
- Attakus METAL Darth Vader (thanks Jack!)
- Vintage Canadian 77-back Darth Vader
- Gold Titanium Darth Vader's TIE (thanks Matt!)
- Medicom Vinyl Darth Vader
- a HUGE purchase of loose figures for my dioramas (thanks Mikey!)

Obviously, this is the year I developed my Darth Vader focus and greatly ignored The Saga Collection.
I'm in for 2007, anyone else?

I'll be keeping track agin in '07. :)
As far as "large purchases" go, I have to say my largest in 2006 was my Series 7 Master Case Order from Robby.
Sure, I ended up the majority of the cases to the local guys, but there is nothing like getting a call from your Credit Card company asking to validate a $2k charge from Japan. :P

I lost track around June, but I'd estimate that I spent about the same as I did in 2005 which was around $1500, maybe a little less (around $1200).
