Collections

[Vodstok]

What do you collect?


I have an enormous collection of bottles, over 200 at this point. No repeats, all various kinds of liquor and beer, some still have booze in them. I have one that my grandmother in law gave me that is worth over $300.

I also have a HUGE collection of Magic The Gathering cards. i had a decent collection, and i had a frweind who also played that had thousands of them. He had been going out with my sister for years and kept them at our house. Anyway, they broke up, and i put them in my trunk for him to take. for 2 FUCKING YEARS i told him to take them back and he kept putting it off. Finally, we stopped hanging out and talking, so i kept them. i'm not sure what the value is, but with some o fthe rare cards, and the sheer number of them, it has to be between 3 and 10 thousand dollars (maybe i should find out...)

I also have a collection of cards for a game called "Netrunner". it was a MTG type game based on Cyberpunk 2020.

And i have cards for Jyhad, the forerunner to Vampire_the eternal strugglre card game. it only lasdted a couple of months because it was almost unplayable.

[kpropain]

Back before i had a woman, i had a frighteningly large collection of internet porn....

close to 2 gigs of pictures alone. All big chested women. i really was a sad little nerd.

I would love to collect fossils, but i dont have the room or the money. Plus, i think fossils in general should be in a museum.

god dammit boy, if i was 20 years younger i'd whoop your sorry ass !!!

[Vodstok]

I'm not sorry, so you wouldnt whoop my "sorry" ass. :P


Old man :)

Isnt it funny, though, that the people i get along with best here are usually much older than me? Except cheeba, he's a youngin' :)

krpo is a year older than me so he is an old fart :D


I used to collect anything i downloaded from the internet. I had tons of movies i downloaded and never watched, tons of music i never listened, to. I deleted most of it. i figured if i had a movie or somg for 3 years and hadnt watched or listened to it yet, it was about time to get rid of it.

i keep everything i download .. burn it off to cds hundreds of games i've never played .. 1000s of mp3s i'm just listening to now ...
the movies were good but many were a waste as i replaced most of them with DVDs before i got a chance to watch them

[kpropain]

Here are some pics of some of my action figure collection...

I still have around 300 or so that are still in the packages that are stored away in boxes, I just don't have enough room for all my shit.

And now DVDs.

I bought one at a junk store to sell on ebay .. then i found another - same store months later .. mint !
the little green monsters, etc were still stuck to the plastic frames ..

"Clean Sweep" would have a field day with you!:D

[Vodstok]

BAck in the early 90s, Venom (from spiderman) had his first solo series called "Lethal Enforcer" (or something to that effect).

I had a mint condition copy of the first issue i had just bought the day it came out (the series sucked, but i still have all of them). it was sitting next to me on the coffee table, and my mom put her drink on it like it was a coaster.

I glared at her and said "Mom... your drink?"

"What?"

"Mom, that comic cot me $3 and was worth 6 the second i paid for it...."

"oops, I'm sorry honey..."

it didnt leave any marks on it, but i made godamn sure my family didnt get anywhere near anything of value to me with food or drink....

LOL I had that happen also not with the board game but, when they re-released the original Star Wars trilogy in the movie theaters here when Jedi was released they gave away these limited edition Jedi Luke Skywalker figures on Limited cards to the first 50 people in the door, it was only like 10,000 of them nation wide they were listed for around $175 a piece last time I checked...Well thankfully I bought an extra ticket and got two of them cause my son got a hold of one of them and it was no longer "mint on card"

i LOVE going to garage sales .. but i hate having them...

i've got some amazing stuff .. its unbelievable what people want to get rid of ...

on the other hand i've been to many where i think people simply dump their garbage pails on the lawn and try to sell it

I feel the same way. I've had 2 yard sales and made a total of about 40 cents. But I love going to yard sales. Last year my sister and I went to a ritzy neighborhood that advertised a yard sale and all they had was really trashy looking stuff. I said to my sis you'd think there would be better stuff here, but you get better stuff in the lower income neighborhoods.

[BH14]

i never been to a garage sale. but my uncle raves about them bc he bought a 50 inch screen tv for 100 bucks and it works and everything... he also bought a computer for 100 bucks.. it wasnt the best but still damn good for price. And he buys a ton of videogames for like 5 bucks or less for his kids (XBOX games). And even a nice grill for like 20 bucks.

The best deal I ever got was a 35mm camera with 2 lenses and a carrying case for $25.

[Vodstok]

I have to take a deeper look at this when i get home tonight. Jyhad cards are selling for 10 -18 bucks a piece....


I knew those godamn things would be worth somehting someday :D

I havent bothered looking at ebay for a while now... i guess i should :)

[ShankS]

I have a couple of Judge Dredd comics left from years ago, copies of the 1st and 2nd editions from the second series...the rest I sold or gave away. I've been meaning to get them both valued, I know there'd be some hardcore collector, who would love to get their hands on em for a decent price.


don't collect anything else, apart from my DVD and VHS collection.

Go for it Vod. My youngest son is getting into Magic the Gathering now and drives me crazy all the time to buy him cards on e-bay.

[Vodstok]

I got into that game at about the 4th series, when it's popularity exploded. i would have loved to have gotten in on the ground floor....


It would have been like buying microsoft stock 20 years ago.

I was glad to see that the Jyhad stuf fis worth so much, especially since it failed so badly.

[urgeok]

i have a big box of those magic cards .. came from the same place i buy all of my cool used shit at ...

[BH14]

I too have martial art weaponary... not much but some. Butterfly knives. I am excellent with the butterfly knife because I learned from a good book. And I use my butterfly knife as a letter opener so my skills with it remain sharp. I always wanted to get into the samurai swords but never got into it.

[Marroe]

I collect Marilyn Monroe, Misfits, and M&M's memorabilia. Also of course movies, and music. Would pictures be something to collect as well as a hobby? I have tens of thousands

[Elvis_Christ]

I used to collect records but I sold them all to buy a new bass guitar. I've got a resonably big VHS collection. I've started collecting Comics, Fangoria and other horror related magazines. But yeh I'm having one of those mid 20s crisies so I'm starting to hold onto more of my possessions instead of selling them for beer and drugs :p

I've got issues 2,3,4,9, 10,11 and most of the first 30 - 40. I'm not sure what they'd go for? I've got quite a few issues of Gorezone they came with some great posters that I've got all over my walls (my girlfriend hates them tho - "There disgusting!")

[urgeok]

oh yeah ...

i also collect philipino love slaves ..

got me a whole whack of them ... but there's always room for one more :D

[movieman64]

I had 4 huge binders of baseball cards in protective sleeves, somthing like 600-700 per binder, they were huge and weighed a ton. They were upper deck, fleer, and a couple of others and like brand new. They were from "90" and "91". I picked them up at an auction, thinking I might make some money, (I don't know a damn thing about trading cards). I put them on E-bay and the highest bid I got was $4.50 per binder, (I paid $10.00)! Hell the binders were worth more then that. I finally gave them to a friend as a Christmas gift. So it's no more trading cards for me.

[Kemal]

I collect books(mostly history) and guns(mostly rifles.) I have to keep most of my guns with a friend because of the restrictive laws in Washington D.C. which as you may guess, don't really do shit. Of the two, I value my books more. I buy them compulsively and have far more than I can read. In addition to history, I have been reading science fiction recently. I'm not really into horror/fantasy writing but I do like H.P. Lovecraft's stuff.

A kid dressed as Spongebob, a kid dressed as an old woman, and a guy dressed like some character off Star Wars(?) were the winners. The star wars guy liked my Leatherface costume though. And all the little boys there liked the Leatherface & Michael Myers costumes too...I said they should have let the little boys be the judges. :p

Hahaha that's awesome! Halloween's just slowly starting to take off over here, can't wait till this year. People kept asking me if I'd been in an accident and if I was "alright" when I was walking home from a friends gig. Halloween gets all the religous crackpots going over here to which I find very intertaining!

How old is your kid? :) He sounds alot like my cousin(or at least the way he used to be when he loved dinosaurs...I haven't really seen him or been around him much in awhile.)
And speaking of knowing all the proper names, my other cousin used to be able to name every brand of vacuum cleaner imagineable just from looking at them in a book...and this was before he could read. I always thought it was pretty weird how he was so fascinated with vacuum cleaners. :p

Movies (Mainly horror)
CDs (Punk, Rap, Rock)
All things Simpsons (Mostly action figures, but I also grab anything else I can find.)
Concert ticket stubs (I have the ticket from every one of the 50+ concerts I've gone to.)
Baseball, Football, Basketball cards
Comic books (Used to be all Marvel. Now just the DC Vertigo line.)
Books (Mainly non-fiction)

[ENTITY2000]

i have a huge collection of comic books,
here are just some of them
tales from the crypt
vault of horror
conan the barbarian
archie
red sonja
i have alot more i just can't think of the name of
all of them right now but most of them date back
to the late 60's early 70's:)

[babygirl20]

I know it sounds gay as hell, but I collect candles.

Wiccan Candles
Zodiac Candles
Sun and Moon Candles
Fairy Candles

Just any kind of candles I collect them. They are good when it comes to the bedroom.;)

[ItsAlive75]

I collect:

movie posters
autographed cubs baseballs
baseball jerseys

[The_Return]

Well lemme see...I sorta collect comics, I have a hell of alot too. But I doubt that any are worth anything, I got about 95% from those bags you used to be able to get for a couple bucks that had 3-4 comics in them. I havnt read many, to be honest.

I also collect Penguins. Not actual penguins, of course. I have around 80, including stuffed, glass, ceramic, plastic, crystal, clay, candles, wickar, brass...heck, even one made out of leather!

I have alot of Pins, too. Most just random ones, and ALOT from when I went to Disney a few years back.

Plus, Im getting a movie collection off the ground. I doubtlessly spend more time/money latly on this one. 68 VHS, and strangly enough, the same number of DVD [Counting Boxsets as 1].

I'd like to get some Tales From The Crypt comics but I don't think they ever made it over here. I've got a few issues of stuff like Creepy. But I've managed to find stuff like old Famous Monsters of Filmland issues so maybe there creeping about somewhere..... I just can't be fucked paying large sums of money for them.

lol :p I don't think he's as crazy about vacuums now as he was when he was a little kid...though I could be wrong. I don't hear him talk about them much anymore though. :p

thats cause you cant hear him talk over the powerful motor of his favorite industrial sized shop vac :)

[AUSTIN316426808]

I always hold on to ticket stubs

movies-I have everyone I've went to since L.A. Confidential.

concerts- I only have 3 at the moment.

[Amalthea]

In the past was it cassettes, coins, soda and beer cans, Star Wars plastic figures and horse magazines and horse posters, now is it movie posters, DVDs in nearly all movie genres, ad pens and Minidisc cassettes.

[bwind22]

My comic books are mostly Amazing Spider Man, Wolverine, Punisher, X-Men, Darkhawk, Batman, Preacher, and Sin City.

I usually keep my ticket stubs too. I haven't been to many concerts but I have been to see alot of movies and I usually keep the ticket stubs to them...unless my mom sees them laying around and throws them away. She can't stand to see any "junk" laying around the house and wants to throw everything away that isn't useful, or give it away or whatever...I'm the opposite though. I save almost everything. My dad & grandpa are the same way I am...they wanna save all their junk too. :p
