--- Quote from: Lord Rodney on 2014-08-18, 02:50:08 ---Everyone on this forum is very helpful and will go out of their way to give you tips. The most important of which is “take your time.” You may have money burning a hole in your pocket, but resist the urge to splurge. Take a step back, look around, talk to people locally, find an SCA group, find a HEMA group, and put together a plan. Read books from your local library, on line, or borrow from a friend. There are great reference lists on this forum as well as others. I know it doesn’t sound exciting, but the end result will be better. :)

This.
As mentioned previously, definitely check out Sir Ian's and Sir James' posts in the Armory concerning buying armor. They're an excellent source of information. And don't be afraid to ask questions. We have folks here that know their way around SCA, Living History, armor in general, and all kinds of other topics. You're in good hands here. :)

As stated, this says it all. Ask any of us on any topic you have interest in and we shall advise you. We all have our specialties and are all well-rounded in these matters. We are a very diverse group/forum with multi-talents in all things medieval.
Sir Edward:
Wow yes, taking time and avoiding splurging. That's a great tip, but one that is hard to follow.
We all end up with a drawer (or room) full of stuff we don't use anymore, because we didn't know better when we bought it. ;)
Sir Brian:
That is unless you are one of those blessed individuals with “unlimited” income! ;)

Then you end up with a house full of stuff you don't use anymore. And then a storage unit. ;)
