Wow, so you never play your games that you buy or you get a second copy that you open to play?

No I never play any of the CE's I get, I do however get cheap used copies of games I like.

Which is few and far between, have loss interest in gaming solo. Only really like multilayer now.

Sounds good.

Is your intention to sell your collection at some point in your life or it forever be something you keep?

I'm new to the forum and have the odd collectors item here and there, part of me thinks it's of value but collecting things is a very expensive hobby lol.

I have no intention of selling my collection, of course this is dependant on my financial circumstances. Never really thought about 10 years or even 1 year down the line. I just take it as it comes.

You are right collecting is not at all cheap, even more so if you are a sealed collector.

I'm sure like me, other members will be very interested in your collection.

Any chance you will show us.

This forum looks like fun, yeah I'll take some photos over the weekend and post them when I can.

Probably not much to show or that it is not relevant, certainly not as impressive as all you lot here.

Only got onto this bandwagon after getting Final Fantasy XIII Collector's Edition boxset, went a bit crazy after that.

I do have all the issues of Nintendo Super Play magazine which I am a proud owner of, if that counts for something lol.

I don't I think have any special/collector editions of games that are still sealed, though. However, I'm very careful so when I open something that is sealed to take the item/game out, I still keep the plastic on so it's almost like it is unopened. At least that way it keeps the box in new condition.

Great, looking forward to it.

Yes a complete Mag collection is certainly something many of us will be very interested in.

There's not a huge amount of sealed collector's on this forum well there is but far more that open and play the game inside.

I'm sure there's someone out there who buys 2 copies of each, one to keep and one to open and enjoy.

I'll have to get the magazine collection from my parent's house, it's in the loft so hopefully it's still in good condition and the pages hasn't gone yellow. Scary thought.

Nowadays, plastic bags decompose too so I need to find some something else to wrap my stuff without it looking like an explosion happened. It turns into such a mess.

If you me Plastic wraps, like the ones used for DVD sized games they can be purchased for very little from ebay.

LOL - Yeah mags in the loft with British weather is a scary though.

Thanks , The divine edition is a Spain Exclusive, they don't show up often on ebay, better chance getting it from a member in Spain.

Looks like I've been here for a whole month. I'm glad I started my thread, still need to go to my parent's and get some of my stuff from the loft and take photos. That's where my magazines are kept, not sure when I'll go next but hopefully in a few weeks.

You got any new stuff to post up?

Congrats on reaching 5000 posts by the way.
