+1...exactly what he said :)
Don`t rush into buying a lot at once, take your time and consider purchases carefully. Buying second hand has many advantages. Sales Corner is a better bet than ebay if you lack experience, but insist on seing good detailed photos to assess cosmetic condition. Far too many poor pictures taken with phones these days.
Don`t be afraid to ask advice on here, there's a lot of expertise on most brands.
