They can be updated easily and from time to time - it's nice to know what I have. It's also interesting to see how I view fluctuations over time. If you find it "Dave Stoller" to buy a campy umbrella clamp when you already have one, great. I think it's incredibly stupid, a waste of money and I find it useful to have an easy repository of what I have. It also gives me a fast place to look if there are trade offers, or WTBs, or to quickly check what I can part with if I need fast bike funds. It's fine if you don't find it useful, but obviously some here do.
Example.
I needed Kool Stops today and was ready to order a set.
Checked inventory on my spreadsheet for handy reference, went to dig through boxes and there they were.
On the Merckx and functioning, well mostly.
