Hehe, I think that ship is sailed. I'm in pretty deep already. I have a set in my basement ready for round two, and I'm constantly on the lookout for rounds 3-26.

That is pretty much a moot point indeed for anyone who has the space/skills. Once you do one, you have an itch to do more. Everyone here's been bitten, I think.
However, I do imagine there must be people that do "Just One™" because it was their grandfathers or whatever and has particularly special value to them, but they have no interest in other sets.
(sadly, I have neither a lot of space, nor does anything overly interesting ever pop up in my area. I only got my fleetwood because the previous owners left it in the hayloft of our barn.) Sure, there's the odd AA5 that some idiot wants $200 for, but given my limited space (look at my nickname and if you need a better hint, my website, then take a guess with what it's filled...) and already having a tube radio, I _really_ want to do a tube-based TV set.
