I get this totally.  I haven’t run out of storage space, but thanks to the amount of painting I got done during lockdown, and the fact that little playing got done I now have a “backlog” of completed projects just waiting to get played.  All are for game systems/periods etc that my friends play and are interested in but sheer logistics mean that I expect it will be many years before they all get used as club meets only once a fortnight.  It means my motivation for buying anything new is nil as it would just sit there at the end of the queue.  I suspect my pile of completed stuff will keep me gaming well into retirement before there is any “need” to acquire any more stuff.  As it stands I am now only feeling the itch to buy come along when there is a new ruleset that improves on one I already have, or I spot a really nice miniature that I would like to paint simply for the joy of painting.  Neither of these things happens very often, and neither are particularly expensive.
