Are you really saying you mostly collect things just so other will know you have them? It just sounded that way.

I think most of us collect because we love the franchise and the items of that franchise we collect for. Showing the items off is a bonus... and we only do it to share our passion with others who share the same passion and can appreciate the items like we do. There is always a small part of it being "look at what I got and you don't" with all of us... some of us are far worse then others though.




Very true... we all need to curb our collecting form time to time for various reasons. Some of us even sell parts of our collections.
No I don't actively buy things to show them off and say hey look what I have

So the comment from before was just worded poorly? You just meant you have no one else to actively share your collection with and that is a big part of why you collect?

It was worded very poorly
I have no one in the real world to share my collection and displaying it is becoming difficult, and storing it is more difficult as all my shelves are full and overflowing and my storage space is overflowing

But I realize I am coming across as really negative right bow
But I don't feel negative
