What do you collect?

[Tickling&Farts]

Do you guys here collect anything inside of your house or apartment? Jewelery, Cheese Shavings, Belly Button Lint etc.

I would love to collect and have more Dvd's and Blu-Rays and Albums (Music). But I don't have nearly that type of money to spend on that type of stuff monthly unfortunately.

I have a complete collection of Topps baseball cards of all of the 1955 Brooklyn Dodgers. 😀

I collected more things when I was younger, such as model cars, trains, old tins and branded items, but sold a lot when I was short of cash - I now regret that, but still do collect.

I have a collection of empty real ale bottles - they are decorative and lined up along the top of a fireplace and various other surfaces. I like to remember what I've drunk and find the label designs and stories behind each ale interesting

I also collect vintage badminton racquets, but only one of each time eg. wooden, half-wood, bamboo, classic shapes and styles etc.

Films I collect, but no more than most people, but I do see have a sense of pride with my collection, which i think is a sign of it being a collection/hobby rather than just generally having DVDs

When I was younger, comic books and baseball cards. still have about 400 comic books. just waiting for them to be worth a million dollars.

nowadays, I mostly collect dust (I know, I'm very original)

 

[desdemona]

Elephants. I have over 800. Only rule: No politics. And other animal figurines. I also collect books - for example, I have the French and the UK versions of the Harry Potter books plus the additional books written that complement the series and books about the books 🙂

Like Mils and Mitch I collect baseball cards, but instead of great Dodger players from the 50's I have cards of the great Braves from the 90's.

Recently I began collecting glass bottle caps. I'm not sure how it started but now I have a few jars full sitting in my kitchen and I don't know exactly what I should do with them. I might make picture frames out of them.

I also have a small collection of records that I'd like to expand

 

[General Zod]

Lots of tank models.

 

[GL2814]

Comic books. Been collecting since around 2001. I have around 5000 in my collection, give or take 100.

 

[Bohemianne]

Coins - the older and rarer, the better
Media files - e-books, movies, audio, tabs, scores, images, etc.
Tickling Art files

Soul - I'm kiddin' 😉

 

[kered]

Unique coffee mugs.

 

[Numbah-1]

NASCAR stuff. Mainly racecars and shirts. I got (from some1 who stole it lolol) a Sprint banner since the main series is NASCAR Sprint Cup.

Lately I've been collecting tobacco tins thou. Thats the newest hobby

 

[tklfeather10]

I collect mainly small items that are cheap to buy from car boots and various fairs, pens, clocks, watches, knifes,cameras, mainly old and worn items.
The fun is collecting the parts to restore these items.
Anything mechanical or connected to bikes, cars, and machinery, even tools.
Cost is always the eternal restraint, which is a good thing otherwise i would have the house full of junk and be outside in a tent.

Baseball cards proved to be a great investment. I had some 900 cards circa the 1959-1964 era,.... carefully stashed away and virtually forgotten for about thirty years, and voila,.. a surprise windfall. I even went to some card shows whenever extra expenses popped up.

 

[a7hgsir4h3jk]

I used to collect the stickers from fruit when I was very little.

I was a weird kid! 😀

 

[luvgirlsfeet]

I collect the State collection quarters, shot glasses from states I've visited over the years and Boston Bruins memorabilia

 

[Barbershopman]

Like others on the forum, I used to collect baseball cards back when they came in the packets with that piece of hard as a rock unchewable gum. This was back in the late 70s, early 80s. I also have a collection of Upperdeck cards from the late 90s early 2000s. Hopefully, in about another 20 years, they should be worth a small fortune.

[BlasterMaster]

Porn. Lots of porn. Lots and lots of porn. Entire bookcases of PORN! MOUNTAINS OF PORN! I LITERALLY HAVE A METRIC SHITLOAD OF EROTIC LESBIAN ON LESBIAN PORN in my CLOSET and that's just the stuff I have on LESBIANS!

Heh, kidding. I'm to poor to collect ANYTHING right now (aside from the occasional commission I have stored on my hard drive).

But I digress...PORRRRRNNN!

 

[Bizkit]

I collect cd's still, definitely prefer to have the actual disc and cover art if I care enough about the band and album. A few folks mentioned baseball cards, I was around for the initial boom of mma cards and have some very rare ones. Recently I purchased another rare one, which was the first in a couple years, and it resparked my interest a bit.
