Bought something at a train show I already own? LOL! Been there, done that, got the extra boxcar with the same road number! I use a spread sheet as well, and I also keep a 3x5 card file in a couple of long drawers rescued from an old library. That's probably a good idea to keep track of the prices for insurance purposes - although if your collection gets very large, you probably need to add a rider to your homeowner's policy. But I'd be afraid to know how much I've spent on just rolling stock alone! Although as somebody else said around here, compared to how much money someone can sink into an RV or a boat or a cabin in the woods, model railroading is comparitively cheap recreation!
