My Collection
Do you have display cabinets full of stuff? With it all neatly labelled, cross-referenced and entered into a database. Have you been to a convention? Do other collectors look up to you in awe?
I thought I was above this one. I'm not that autistically geeky that I have a Collection with a capital C. But no, I remembered I'm hoarding away every version of "Inside Macintosh" ever published.
What do you collect? And why? I mean, what makes you do it?

I used to...
..collect various things. I had lots and lots of shells( kind of cheating though cos I bought most of them. Well you're not going to find a conch on a beach in the UK :P )
I also had a collection of postcards, it started with me just saving the ones relatives and friends sent to me, then progressed to my buying postcards as souveniers from holidays, and eventually got to the free postcards they used to hand out at school, with mad pictures that were advertising stuff. I started sticking them on my wall, by the time I stopped collecting, one entire wall of my room was covered in the things, some even overlapped :S
I also had marbles, but they weren't very interesting. Sold them at a car boot sale a while back, made a tenner for them, meh, who cares if I made a loss, another kid will be able to play with them now :)
oh and *ahem* I believe it is polite in these parts to say : "Woo first post :)"
