What do you collect
« on: December 05, 2011, 09:36:20 pm »
Growing up my dad got me started collecting stamps and pennys.  As I grew older my collections expanded to model railroad equipment and finally bills.  :)   So what do you like to collect?

I collected sports cards for over 35 years. I had over 250,000 a one time, but have sold some of the
collection off over the years.

I start to collect cards now. Yugioh cards to be specifics. It's a fun game and I love playing it as a hobby.

I'm collecting sets of the state quarters for me and my nieces/nephews.  Been fun looking at every quarter I get to see if it's one I "need" for the collection.

I also collect coffee mugs - mostly from my trivia contest, but also from various places I visit.

I used to collect Star Wars stuff (original trilogy).  I still have some action figures and lots of cards from the movie (no complete sets though).  Figure some day they may be worth something to someone...

My collection is of elephants.  My uncle got me started when he gave me my aunt's prize elephant after her passing.  I have them in all sizes and materials (except ivory).  They range is size from 1/4in to over 4ft tall.  Also have a small collection of schnauzer statues from my mom.

Not really a collector, if I were it'd probably be books

I collect a lot of things mainly to resell. Art, art glass, antique linens, lots of stuff. Anything unique to resell eventually.
