Well your celler is either broad or deep. If you have a few lb of a bunch of different tobaccos, Identify the top 10 or so and triple your content on those.
If you don't have many blends but have 10+ lb of the ones you like, take the opportunity of sales as the come up and get a lb of stuff you haven't tried. If you don't like it, it will sell.
No problems. Just ease back on the volume, but keep buying.

Start buying only rare and collectable tins or hard to find tobaccos such as Stonehaven or some of the UK blends that are not imported into the US. The search will take up a lot of your time and some of those tobaccos will take a chunk of your change.

A 100 pounds might not be enough. You want to make sure you can make at least 80 years old without having to worry. You're so right "so many blends, so little time"

What? So much tobacco and just 20 pipes? Only 20????? I would say in comparision to your tobacco stash you are severely under-piped! Go and buy pipes now. :mrgreen:

Why thanks everyone for all the comments and support. My mind is made up, keep cellaring and get more pipes. What's not like with that plan.

A few approaches. Buy less frequently in smaller quantities. Swap some of what you have overbought for smaller quantities of blends you'd like to try instead of buying them. Join or start a pipe club and be very generous with sharing. Slow down on buying pipes, and buy higher level to increase time between purchases. Go easy. No harm done. You just don't want a budget buster tobacco habit or storage or inheritance problems.

I said I was going to stop at 250 pounds, and did for a while, but TAD reared it's ugly head again and I bought some aged tins of SG FVF, and then tried a new blend I really like so of course I had to get some of that, so I guess it just never ends.

"Could always start collecting cigars."
Been there and done that. This is a quick pic of when I started in cigars. Now I still have the 2-600 count humi, 3-300 count humi's and 4-100 count. This tubs you see now total 17 and my total cigar count is around 2,900.
