I have reached my goal! I have a complete collection

Fellowship of the Ring: complete
Mines of Moria: complete ánd foil
Realm of the Elf-Lords: complete
Two Towers: complete
Battle of Helms Deep: complete
Ents of Fangorn: complete
Return of the King: complete
Siege of Gondor: complete
Reflections: complete
Mount Doom: complete
Shadows including RF: complete
Black Rider including RF: complete
Bloodlines including RF: complete
Expanded Middle Earth: complete
The Hunters including RF: complete
Rise of Saruman including RF: complete
Treachery and Deceit including RF: complete
Ages End: complete

It was quite a struggle to complete my collection, and it costed me more that I want to remember. New horizons are to be discovered though. Maybe someday I want the Masterwork foils, which are way too expensive nowadays. Maybe I'm trying to collect a foil collection of all the 1-10 sets, maybe, only maybe I'm trying to collect the promo's.
First my goal is to obtain playsets...wish me luck ;)

Congrats! I can't imagine how much time and $$$ that must have taken.

Now take pictures and post them! :P
Best regards,
Dáin

Collecting promos was fun up until Shadows, when Decipher decided to make it impossible to get them all. I had a pretty good collection (read: perfect) until that point... when I gave up out of frustration.

Hey !! That's awesome news, GE, congratulations!! What an accomplishment!

I once had the collection from 1 to 12 but ultimately i traded more than half of it for NK's SWCCG collection, so that was the end of the line for me in collecting :D Now i only keep cards I use for playing.

Congrats again! Enjoy your collection and spend some more money with a cool binder for it ;)

no, found them too expensive, but now I've reached this, I'll probably look further in to it..maybe I will start collecting those now.

well, my dear friend, I did, but at that time it didn't occur to me...and I will not spend a lot of money on them. Will try hardcore trading though ;)
