davem ... I must join you in pleading guilty to owning multiple editions of many JRRT books. In my case, it goes back to first US editions of both THE HOBBIT and all three LOTR and then it only gets worse.
During the 1960's, at the height of all the political unrest, there was a saying - "you are either part of the solution or part of the problem". If indeed the Tolkien Estate and its designated publishers are kept in pools of money because of constant reissues of the same material, then I am afraid that you and I - and I would guess many others here - are indeed part of the problem.
I guess the first step is admitting you have a problem. I know I do. I just like a bit of new to help me rationalize it from time to time.
