    Yes I do, but it does not make me a collector of DVDs or Blurays. I don't buy them for their rareness or value, I buy them because I want to have the movie handy when I want to watch it. It's purely a pragmatic collection or better put, inventory.

    I generally buy a coffee mug from places I visit but I don't have a showcase for them, I use them to hold hot coffee. Like the one I picked up from the after visiting an Obama rally that says, "I see dumb people".

    I am pretty simple.

    Marklin Trains
    Lladro

    Almost all my money these days goes to renovating my house, improving the landscaping in my yard and paying for our adoption. But from these things I have collected things that have gone beyond any value.

    Like most men, I have a problem paying other people to do things that I believe I can do. So, over the last two years I have collected tools and books of the trade to help me through all my projects. One of the things I have really learn to enjoy is tile work. There is something really satisfying about working with travertine, granite and porcelain. So you can say I collected this knowledge, along with the knowledge of crown molding, hardwood flooring and cabinet building (Even though I am not real fond of these...)

    Most of my life I have spent a lot of money on things that later have little value to me. For most of my life it is fair to say that priorities have been a little backwards. How does the saying go... Life is what happens when your not paying attention.

    And it is fair to say that it no longer matters that all the toys are mine.
    Life
    It's what happens
    When you least expect it.

    I forgot to mention belly button lint, and since I have a rather large belly button I have plenty to part with. Anyone interested can PM me and I'll send it to you free plus shipping and handling.

    I collect girls at the bar. I'm trying to get them all but that isn't working too well. But seriously. I don't collect that much stuff but have a bunch of hobbies. The only other thing aside from pachi machines I collect would be guns. I do quite a bit of shooting in my free time with my buddies. I like to golf, hike, drink w/ my buddies, etc. I also go to college so that in a few years I can start to collect big paychecks!

    I collected SpiderMan Comics.

    I had Amazing Fantasy 15 through The The Amazing Spiderman #147.

    I even had some very rare issues and specials.

    One of which was a small Horizontal 5"x 9" Spiderman Comic that only 6 were made when the Press Die Cracked. 1969 or 70 I forget which year.

    I even had a Picture with Stan Lee that I asked him to sign when I was 10. It was the same day that I bought Spiderman #1 for $100 in mint condition with the money I made Selling newspapers and Christmas Trees. My Father thought I was wasting my money and thought I had lost my little mind buying a comic for $100

    Imagine if he were alive to see my Machine collection! LOL

    All were in MINT condition.

    All were thrown out by my Father when he remodeled my room when I went into the Air Force.

    Free my a$$! What with the drilling leases, dry wells, cost of rigs (on and off-shore), transportation, refining, distribution and the high BBL Commodities Market right now (damn BBL speculators), no thanks!
