I understand the dilema you faced, having been there myself a time or two. Sometimes it's a good idea to just take a breath and think a while, but when there's an good opportunity at hand, perhaps never to be repeated, it's hard to put on the brakes.
After a flurry of buying and selling last year in an attempt to round out and refine my stable, I have decided to just start shooting and enjoying what I have. I managed to pick up some stuff I had been hankering after and also pick up a good, solid .308 for just general shooting and farting around with. I'm not a collector and have pretty much reached the point of having about all I can put to good use. Pretty soon, I'll probably start turning some stuff over to my sons, thus avoiding a lot of contention over the "treasure" when I shuffle off this mortal coil. I suspect that I'll enjoy their use of the stuff I've put together as much as my own.
Happy Birthday.
