Do you collect anything?

Other than spare DSM parts what do you collect?

Recently in all my spare time I have spent alot of time going through my card collections. I got rid of almost all my baseball cards and trying to get rid of the rest on ebay right now, but I have really spent most of my time going though my football cards. I stopped colelcting a long time ago and realized I collected just long enough. Alot of Moss, Manning, Favre and others rookie cards. Just going to sort all them out and try to send some in to be graded soon.

Anyone else collect cards to anything else?

I used to collect baseball cards in the 80s and early 90s. Still have all of them too.

I also have a nice collection of Jeff Gordon and other assorted NASCAR stuff.

Lately I've been wanting to get my hands on anything radio controlled.

I've collected a little bit of everything ranging from stamps, sports cards, license plates, to old tools. I have quite a few old tools back home that I've found at auctions and antique stores over the years.

I have about 1,000 comic books. I collected mostly in the early 90's. They are actually really good investments, a comic book sold for over $1 mil a few years back!

I also have about 100 hotwheels from my childhood.

Primarily the only thing I buy are Movies, but for a while Jenny and I collected sippy Cups.

As a kid I collected Garbage Pail Cards - have like the complete first 9 or so editions.

I used to collect POKEMON cards...until my friend stole them all and blamed it on his cousin (I had them all, perfect and everything). That was a long time ago when I was younger.
I collect some cars...not too many, it gets too $$$.
I also have a couple R/C cars lying in my room collecting dust. I need to get my gas one up and running again. They're so much fun!

Seeing JET mention Hot Wheels reminded me that I totally forgot about my Hot Wheels/Matchbox/Lesney collection. I have toys cars dated back from the 50's to now.

Both actually and Joe, you are close, but in AJ's case it ended up being pocket lint.

Rally stuff (i.e. route books from every year I've worked, sponsor banner, toy cars and the occasional tire tread), had most of the garbage pail kids, still have a bunch of older comics (old Archie and the gang, Red Dot, Casper, Dennis the Menace, Peanuts), and old Mad Magazines dating back to the 50's and 60's.

Like Enes said, bills as well.

Brian, those are worth a good chunk of money right now. I cant remember where I saw them, but they were selling for GOOD money.
