Thoughts on collecting changing??

It seems that everyone must ask himself the question of what kind of quality he wants his collection to be. Just like the quantity, purpose, timing, as to your collection. I just purchased a 1917 Artillery that the seller said he had originally purchased an artillery but it wasn't real nice so he sold and bought a better one; and then did that several times and finally ended up with this really nice one and kept it for 35 or 40 years. Then sold it to me as he was getting up in years. His relatives didn't want or didn't appreciate it so he sold it.
Different strokes for different strokes as the old saying goes.
thanks
