    At this point, I don't know if I would even consider retail. Just about everything available at a retail store can be purchased cheaper online. It's hard to say "just go here" because prices change, things go in and out of stock, etc.

    Until we get our database up, check out www.lowdown411.com. On the top right there is a link to the faceplate index. There are pictures there of a majority of faceplates that have been made. That's a good place to start for making a "shopping list." Also look at the pics of the collections of the members here.

    We try to give people a heads up when we see something on eBay or a site. In some cases, there are plates that a number of us want, and then we just go into the arena... and whoever comes out... vertical... gets the plate.

    I made a thread about how to start a collection back there somewhere. There's a couple of mindsets to take: I want a bunch, fast. Or, I want the best and will take my time. Different people here collect in different ways.

    I've just hit the 2 month mark and I'm over a grand. I set a limit of 20 faceplates and no more but I think I'll double that on customs alone. While SpaceGhost and Ghost Rider have a some of my business, Ebay has gotten a healthy share of the pie. I don't regret spending one dime and I really wish I could afford artist Paval stuff.

    Jesus you guys must have money to just throw out the window to spend that kind of money on something that doesn't affect your gaming at all. I haven't spent a cent, all I need is my console and Halo.

    Lots of people collect stuff that doesn't do anything except sit there and look pretty. You know, the Mona Lisa, the statue of David, etc. I have pictures on my wall that cost me money but don't affect my gaming, either.
