I have about 6 from previous years that often surprise me by flowering again. Not at this time of year, though - usually in summer.

If I see them cheap after Christmas I buy them then - or acquire other people's cast-offs about then too.
Before you ask, I just remove the flower stalk and let them die back naturally. Bung them in the GH and let them dry out. When I see a little green spike appearing, I start watering, maybe a bit of feed too.
I think Amaryllis are great fun - they seem to grow while you watch. I always bought my Mum one.
