As a board game player/collector with too many games and too much disposable income, I've figured out how to fulfill my self-imposed "one-in one-out" rule for buying new board games while also still spending more money on my little hobby.

This is thanks to the growing markets of nice wooden organizers and for "upgraded" components that are getting more common.

I especially love organizers from Tower Rex, a Ukrainian seller on Etsy, and the "Geek Up" bit replacement sets from BoardGameGeek.

I'm not sure the earth will appreciate the additional acrylic that will eventually end up in a landfill, so I'm keeping those to a small number of titles that really benefit from the tactile upgrade, as opposed to just "looking nice".

What's your favorite upgrade to a beloved board game that you're happy you got?
