Im a brickmaster. Posted December 22, 2015 Posted December 22, 2015 Do you guys ever experience crippling indecision when trying to decide on a set? For me this ranges from standing for an un godly amount of time in the aisle to inability to add things to me wanted list. Case in point, TFA sets! I almost want to get Kylos shuttle but it's huge, expensive and if I started get TFA sets I know I'll need to get more. Mostly cause as I get older space and were Im going to put things and what amount of usefulness I get of a particular set is more important. AHHHHGGGH(cough) Ok. Time to share your feelings! Quote
Krikkit Posted December 25, 2015 Posted December 25, 2015 I try and plan the ones that I want. But... And this doesn't happen that often in the UK.... When there is a sale, I am torn a sunder... Quote

Niloc Posted December 26, 2015 Posted December 26, 2015 You're not alone! Always happens... choosing between 2 sets and standing in the aisle, just looking back and forth, choosing one, then leaving it. Then choosing the other... What a pain! I was so tired of that that I developped some techniques/rules to make a quick decision: 1- Compare the overall good and bad between sets, price and number of pieces (±2 minutes) 2- Think about which set(s) I will be most happy to have in a month's time. (±30 seconds) 3- Remember that it's not a life decision, just a really small decision and that whatever the choice, there is no reason to regret it. 4- Set a price limit (±30 seconds) 5- Make an ultimate decision within the next 30 seconds It works for me most of the time and now I don't waste time anymore! @ dr_spock I had no idea that condition actually existed. I thought you were joking at first, but then I looked further and read about it, and it does explain that situation perfectly. Quote
