3) If the above doesn't help, sell out and find something else to do.

Sage advice, right there!

I've been blessed in so many ways, and was very lucky to start collecting eons ago. Sad to see the good stuff dry up, but can't ever forget to stop and appreciate what we do have vs. what we don't.

I'm also very burned out on eBay. I do occasionally find something at a decent price but it seems to take far longer, with endless pages of overpriced BINs to sort through (as others have said)
