I am one of those fools that pays to much at auctions.  Why?  Because
I like the music machines better than food.  They are there,  I usually
have had a month or two to save the money and I knew the collector.
I knew Floyd Miles and was determined to leave that auction with a
memory of him.

At the music auctions I have attended I knew the machines or the
collector and wanted to carry on the memory.  Economically not the
best move on my part.  I have paid more at auctions and private sales
for machines than I could ever recoup.  That is part of the "fever"
that true collectors have in their blood.
