I have a few.

Feel like ive seen that pic before in one of my FB groups lol.

I keep mine in box for the most part. Granted, I just moved and never had space to display before.

I’ve always been a collector. I used to collect comics as a kid. That grew into Pokémon cards, which in turn turned to Yu-Gi-Oh cards. I’ve sold a lot of my collection since then, but I still kept a few important ones.

A few of them have been signed by the voice actors from the shows. My crown jewel is a giant card about the size of a poster that I won at a national event. It was also very rare because they only ever made two of them in total. I had my buddies hold it in the back of my Volkswagen Rabbit while we drove back from New Jersey lol. I got it framed in my man cave now.



Nowadays I’m into collecting pocket knives. I got about 50 so far ranging from Spyderco to Vero, Hinderer, CRK, Peña, and Spartan

Does anyone collect/used to collect sports cards? Anyone have any they want to sell?

I'm collecting older game consoles and Legend of Zelda games/memorabilia. Planning to build displays for both once we move into our house.

I still collect basketball cards, and occasionally football. I've sold all my best stuff, though. Made thousands on eBay in the last couple of years.

I have a guy that makes custom knives of the highest quality if you are interested.

Not a knife collector, but those are incredible.

Sold most (about 40,000 cards) years ago. Mostly baseball, but 20% football and basketball. Kept the rookies and semi-rare cards in sleeves and plastic holders. Have about 5000 cards now.
Been focusing on baseball cards from the early 1900s (T206 tobacco cards primarily). Have about 60 of those. Some graded.
Looking to buy that era if anyone is looking to sell.

While I think your old text books are a waste of time, the Vonnegut is awesome.

Which book?

This just gave me the idea for a new character:

The guy who is obsessed with collecting/reading old college text books. During conversation, he seems incredibly intelligent, but is constantly corrected because all of the books are out of date.
