    Do you give away the "retired" ones or just keep them around for posterity?

    On a yearly basis I prolly spend close $500 on damas and damacessories. When gt's are $100 plus. It's tough to have variety and keep your lights on. Haha. For real tho, I have stacked prolly 60 damas between two houses and, for the most part, they are barely seshed. But I do have about 10 that are unplayable bc of shreddedness tho.

    Nah. They are on shelves and junk. In boxes still. Waiting to be played. I have a lot at my parents place sitting in a box. But I'll get them soon enough. I need to update my stuff and sell some things. Look for a clean out post sometime in the near future from me. Some oldies but goodies. In decent shape from what I remember.

    I have spent probably $800 on kendamas this past year, but that was kind of an exception because I started working a new position that allowed for expendable income. I think I will only spend $300 this coming year. I have about 60 kendamas, most of which are 9 out of 10 or better.

    I’ve been trying to up my collection recently and have spent about 200$ on only 4 damas the binge is real my dude, but if you see a gem in exchange sometimes you just gotta commit.

    I only have about 45 total, but my parents told me I’m bringing them all to college, so I’m trying to slow down
