    My boyfriend is up to his eyeballs deep in boardgames. He does trade/sell the ones he knows are unlikely to get played again, but he’s probably got somewhere in the area of 120-140 games. The vast majority of the games he’s collected over the years have been funded by Kickstarter and many have expansions upon expansions to keep some games replayable. Many of the components are printed/manufactured in other countries, and still plenty of the games will run several hundred dollars each.

    Once Trump was elected, with the talk about tarrifs he loosened up his budget to buy up what he could from his wish list, just to avoid this added expense.

    This level of boardgaming is something I never knew existed till we started dating lol.

      It may either ease your mind (or give you anxiety) to know that a 100+ game collection is pretty average, and some people go way over that.

        It’s not average. Not saying there is anything wrong with it, I love them, would love to have a hundred, but it’s not average.
