What I mean by hoarding is being a store and asking so much for items that your 
collection becomes impossible to even browse, overflowing the isles.  Surplus 
sellers are not collectors, they are businesspeople.  If they were to put 
together a complete radio system it would only be to get more money, not to use 
it or display it.

Collectors can be hoarders too, but that is a bit different.

I don't have anywhere near as much as many people I know because I give stuff 
away, or trade it, or even scrap it out.
