Hi, everyone. Are you fond of collecting stuff? Are you one them who spend a thousand bucks for a stuff to collect? Do you cost more or less in collecting? Some I know who spend much in collecting their favorite stuff and doesn't mind how much they spend just to get those stuff they've been collecting for years. Guys and Gals are welcome to share. Thank you and happy posting.

Hi, there. Marvel toys are good investment, the value of it will increase in time. Is it collectors items? Did you sold it half of its price or more than the original price? If the box are intact you probably sold it in a higher price. Did you sell it to put up business? Why did you gave your toys to your friends?

I have a huge collection of My Little Pony toys. Like probably close to 500 of them, all from the 80s and another 40-50 from the newest line that came out a couple years ago. The most I've ever spent on a single pony was probably $50. So worth it, though, she was adorable!

wow! That's a huge collection, it must be a real treasure to keep. The value of your collections are pretty high now. Someday, the manufactures of that stuff or some other people will go after you and offer a big bucks. I'm sure you won't sell them no matter how high their offer is. Thanks for sharing.

I tried collecting before but, I simply know that it won't end like a comic book with a story that would eventually have a conclusion. However, it is still part of my interest and I still collect whenever I have extra money to spend. I am currently collecting model kits of a particular series. That way, the number of items I need to collect would be definite. I don't really try to spend a lot on it. If I don't have money to spend, I just have to wait and, if the one that I want is not available anymore, I guess it wasn't meant to be (^_^")

I collect at least a piece of rock from places I visit. I like collecting stuff from nature itself and then I put it on my display shelf at home. Collecting stuff doesn't really need to be bought sometimes. I prefer no cost collectibles...good topic.thanks for sharing

I also do that. I do collect some stones to remind me of the place. The last I picked something to bring with me is a huge coral, I put it in my backpack so that the beach stuff won't notice it.lol I don't know if it's forbidden but I was so attracted and tempted to get it. Well, I know it's free but I'm afraid to catch their attention.lol Thank you.

When I was young I collected stickers, stationery and stamps. But I don't know where they are now since we've been moving so much for the past years. I also have a collection of coins and paper bills from different countries. I collected candles and angels too which are mostly gifts from friends. I don't think I am a serious collector like what others might be doing. And I don't spend a fortune for it. I remember I only buy some of them from money I've saved from my allowance when I was still studying.

I do have a collecting yearn for some things. I like to get to know things by having my hands on them. Minerals, meteorites, elements, ha, now there's a collection that can never be filled.

Hi, I love collecting things but I try not to let it get to the point of obsessiveness or break the bank! I use to collect books until I ran out of space and money...so I sold the books, started using the library and started to collect leather bookmarks instead, they take up less room and dont cost much, and I love the smell of them :) I went through a phase of collecting smartie tops, but in a bid to show them off I superglued them to a wardrobe that belonged to my landlord and then couldnt get them off, so that stopped that little obsession lol. At the moment I love cake stands..cant wait to find them in thrift stores and I get such a buzz out of baking cakes and displaying them on the table at parties lol. The most Ive spent on collecting in one go, apart from the book episode, is only about £3, which makes my collecting harmless enough...as long as I can find room for them in the house! I dont think my collections are worth anything, just little buzzes for me when I look at them :) Regards.

When I was in school, I had this habit of collecting stuffs what the less fortunates need and just give it to people who are in badly need of it. Now when some one comes to me for what they need I give. I stopped collecting stuffs at random. I lost heavily in business and I am in a heavy mess. So I have put a temporary stop to this habit. But I will bounce back soon and this habit too. Wish me good luck.
