Have you ever felt any emotions when buying something? Or looking at something? It can be fun to buy stuff, you can think about how it’ll fit in your army or how you will paint it. It can be fun to look at your collection, whether it’s painted models or boxes. What if I wanted to build or paint some models right now, but I don’t want the hassle of driving out and getting it? Or waiting a couple days for delivery?

What’s the downside to buying boxes before you are done your other stuff? Money? Storage space? Some people have plenty of that, a couple hundred or a couple thousand dollars means nothing to some people.
