Collecting - hobbys

Well....I too collect playing cards...
mostly MTG, the old ST:TNG, and the old SW card games...

I've got a few card packs too, the odd one from interesting places, not a proper collection though.

I collect..(easy guess) baseball cards. I have over 300, which isn't bad, considering I haven't bought many for a couple years. I have a Nolan Ryan, a Walter Johnson, and a set of the 1919 Black Sox.

Are playing cards collectable? I have a pack that belonged to my grandfather, must be many decades old.

I don't really think of them as collectable items, but I have 8 guitars.

I also have some books with old prints in, they were bound in about 1902. Is that collectable? I have 3 books in total. Wow, I have books that are f*cking 100 years old! Never thought of it like that before!

Well, I think they are [img]smile.gif[/img] And being rather a cheapskate, I tend to ask from the airlines [img]tongue.gif[/img] Right now I have about 27 packs of cards, most of them from Singapore Airlines

Awww... My mates from my old school gave me a Garfield stuffed animal that snores because I collected Garfield stuff *sniff*

Right now I'm collecting the cans from the Copa Mundial, I only have 5 but they don't have new countries very much at all... I'm also filling out the Panini Mundial booklet with the stickers (you have no idea how much money I spend on this stuff!)

I also collect the tops off cans, except I break them in half and keep the part that you can put on a keychain

What else? I was going to collect guitar picks [img]smile.gif[/img] I still might actually

I am JUST like you! Cept that I have to throw away some cause I was getting welts on my butt from sitting on my wallet [img]tongue.gif[/img] [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Oh yeah I also collect songs and MP3s on my computer. The more the better I say..

I think i will give it a try to build up a large collection of 500 euro bills. (lol) don't have any high hopes on this one though.

hehe, nice one! I haven't seen any euros at all yet, being as we're still stuck in the dark ages here on our poxy island
