@liaizon Counting the LEGO bins I purchased, I'm currently sitting on a $1,785 deficit for the whole operation, which isn't too bad considering the staggering number of set I got to build over two years.
I still have 5 bins to sort, stashed in various places in my house, so it's possible I could end up making a profit, although this has never been a goal for this hobby of mine.
A significant portion of the parts I purchased (~$1,200) has gone into building several cool MOCs (My Own Creation = custom models) that are currently on display in my living room.
