I like to have a good selection of spices on hand. What do you think? Anything obvious I'm missing? Some things on my wish list are: curry leaves, whole cardamom pods and dried green mango, but I get along without them.
I'll go ahead and cross-post this to the Queen's Kitchen.

The list looks pretty good to me. I would highly recommend picking up some green cardamom pods. They go very nicely with cinnamon and cloves. I also have some black cardamom pods which are more earthy. I don't use them as often, but they are nice to use from time to time. Amchoor powder is also on my list of things to pick up. You didn't mention dried fenugreek which is something I have been meaning to pick up as well. I keep a pretty good selection of dried chilis on hand (ancho, guajillo, pasilla, chipotle, cayenne). I find them to be very useful for a number of dishes.
A friend of mine just had a neighbor give her a huge tin of Saffron. Later she looked it up and found out how expensive it is.
