I feel I did pretty well. I ordered large ships on MM to save lots and then got small ship expansions at my FLGS where I play to support them. As of last week, I now have one of each expansion except for Epic ships. The only ships I have multiple of are TIEs and Zs. All I really have left to buy that I really want are a couple more Bs and As.

I've been playing for roughly 6 months.

I would have picked this game up sooner, rather than at wave 3 when there seemed to be a shortage of everything.

After that, I would have done exactly what i've been doing. buying waves as they come out to avoid the shortages.

I would get a lot fewer Z-95s, TIE Fighters, A-Wings, B-Wings, X-Wings, TIE Interceptors, maybe Y-Wings though I'm probably okay with that. I definitely over bought since they come out with them in other packs anyways. I'm being far more judicious in my purchases.

Also I'd have to think long and hard about the LGS vrs on-line. Even though I prefer supporting the LGS there is big price difference and the LGS has, from time to time, had a supply issue.
