Daniel,...
As you may know by intuition or from our other conversations,... I'm just spent-out on tape and gear lately, otherwise I'd hit'ya up on that.
In January, I bought roughly 100 reels of 1/4" tape on 7" reels, 4 pancakes of 1" 3M-996, and no less than 100 Type II cassettes,... actually more, but who can count that high anyway.
& Probably more media that I've just forgotten.
In February, I bought a
digital Fostex FD-4 with internal hard disc,... but don't worry, I'm solidly analog to stay. Consider it a "token" digital unit & a "what the heck" purchase.
... not to mention all the other things I've bought!! I scored some fabulous 12" Laserdiscs of things like Lennon, McCartney, The Who & David Bowie concerts. Lots of great stuff in my household,... you bet!! DVD's galore, too! All that great stuff! I bought it all!
... third thought, is that I'd literally not have any more space to stash even 10 more reels of tape, as we're now a family of 6 in a 1200sf, 3 bedroom/2 bath household. My inside closets are literally STUFFED with reel and cassette media of all sorts, and I'd not kid you about that.
My first and best thought is that the tape is best kept and used by yourself, in your home productions. Putting gear and tape to good use is where it's at.
Try not to think of it as dollars and cents. It's more than that, when you get down to it.
