Haha... This reminds me back when I was regularly bargain-hunting for old, used (sometimes even very beat-up) violins/violas (and even a very hard to ship cello) off eBay a dozen or so years ago and refurbishing them for my growing family to use -- and I actually resold (or gave away) an occasional one too. I collected so many instruments (and refurbishing gadgets/tools) that my family started to think I was gonna run my own violin shop out of our house, LOL.
That was fun... and yeah, a bit addictive, haha...
I'm actually a hardcore-ish computer guy (and actually went to a top uni for that field back in the day), but interestingly, never got the itch to do this sorta thing w/ computers (or any other tech stuff) though. I mean... I've resold a few tech items along the way (and made a little bit of $ doing so) and, of course, helped a handful of family/friends/acquaintances w/ their computing needs, but nothing like this though...
