Having lost /gave away most of my (150? ) mostly Avalon Hill game collection 40 years ago, except for about 30 them that I managed to keep. Nowadays I am rebuying a "few" of my old collection , about 1 every 2 months when I can afford it. Luckily so many old board gamers are dying 🤔 the resell market from estate sales ☹, has many of the old games I am looking for, at basically the same price I paid for the same game back around 1980. LOL $ 10-20, the shipping cost is often more than the game. But basically all my games reside in boxes of shame , as I have no-one to play them with, and my mobility is limited to travel , and I live in BFE, so God only knows if or when I might move somewhere where there are "people" to play these games with. The few games I buy, I for nostalgia , It is nice just to read the rules of old war//board games , and look at the maps and such. , I am pretty proud of my old "Shelf-O-Shame"😎 which is my entire collection now.. ------------------------------------------- Anyway yes , I do have 1 actual "Shelf-o -shame" game, IMO. A game I bought to play with family on a holiday and it totally didn't work. $80 because it was highly wanted, now worth $20 And that is "Jaws" by Ravensburger (2019). But you never know , perhaps , one day , "I will just have to go back to the Island" per Leon Russell And watch the sun go down" And try to play that damn game Shelf O Shame agin, Maybe I might find a bunch of Parrotheads/boat/beach-crowd in the future. . 😎 They might like Jaws. LOL IDK

I get it. I lost my gaming group this year and made drastic cuts to the collection as a result. I was fortunate enough to find a few people to cobble together every once in awhile for a game night but it's not like the good old days anymore. I understand your situation if you're living in a small town it's a lot harder to find a game group. That, and the fact that the older I get the less friends I make making it even harder to meet new people to join a gaming group. But I'm glad you're finding those games for cheap. A lot of the market these days seems to be overpriced. Good to hear you're finding them at a reasonable price

Just 3 games on my shelf of shame right now. Colonists has been on there for about 3 years. The play time is what keeps it there.

I always seem to have about 40 as there are some that I bet never get played. 😂 The newer it is the better chance it has of getting played. Or if it has a solo mode. I face two challenges in that I don’t have a game group that I dictate what we are playing that it sounds like you do. I have one that’s pretty close, but that group only meets 1-2 months and the games HAVE to be light due to some attendees. The other challenge is the flip side in that I am competing with others to what game is played and surprisingly, even though they are gamers, never seem to recognize the game I propose, only popular titles. And I have one person that gets upset for no good reason if I’ve never played it before, no matter how prepared I am. Some of the oldest I bet are around 7 years old. I want to say it’s Rolling Freight. 😢
