Well, I have always been a collector of stuff. In my adulthood, it's been either cds, dvds, car model kits, military model kits,, LOTR figures, and ever since episode 1, Star Wars stuff. It started out with those collector glasses that KFC and the other fast food franchises put out. After that, it was anything I could find, then came the figures, again.
There was a time when I quit picking the stuff up, 4 years ago but realized, a year later, that I had missed a lot of cool stuff and I still have not aquired it all.
Keep in mind that I do operate an Ebay store, so alot of my collection could be considered inventory, not that I would let a lot of it go.
