Any Collectors here ??? Toys/Games/sports etc - GoFuckYourself.com

Scott McD · 04-02-2009, 12:25 PM

Does anyone here collect anthing like vintage toys, games, sports memorabilia etc, either as a hobby, or as a way of making some money ??

I've been doing a bit of research lately on some stuff and just checking a few things out. I have a few bits n' pieces around here, nothing that will probably amount to anything of great value just now, but i intend of having them many years yet so who knows what value they could end up having.

I found a couple of Ebay sellers who have some pretty neat stuff aswell. Boxed/Carded vintage figures (star wars etc), stuff like that at pretty decent prices. Might add a few things to my collection.

What's the best websites for info on places to buy, storage, value and any hints and tips in general ?

I collect Generation 1 Transformers. I have about 100 in good- great condition

Sports memorabilia has seemed to have dropped off.

Toys are the things to collect for money these days.

Yeah, that's how i see it now. Some of the prices things are going at just now are crazy.

Wish i had kept some of the stuff i got rid of for cheap at a car boot sale a few years ago. Don't know what i was thinking...

Even new "Asian" "designer toys" are very collectible and go up in value incredibly fast. Like Kid Robot stuff..

I did for a lot of years, but more for personal enjoyment than anything else. After a while though my collection got so big I had to sell a lot of stuff off. Eventually I got more into bobbleheads (I know, weak, but I couldn't help myself) and collectible statues. If you want to buy some really amazing statues that always seem to go up in value check out http://www.sideshowtoy.com/...

My brother has a ROOM full of toys but most of it is nothing special.

At least as far as I know.

been collecting retro video games for years. started just picking up boxes full of old atari games at garage sales, turned into a fullscale mountain of carts and consoles, with a fait number of rare titles from ebay. the retro game collecting market reallytook a dive a while back though as far as prices were concerned. good for me! bad for anyone who was trying to make cash off it.

I used to collect baseball cards. I still have my Nola Ryan rookie and a few other gems. I like Dallas Cowboy stuff these days. when they did the training here in Cali. I got a bunch of signed stuff.

I got old stamps and old stamps on old envelopes with their original letters in them... Some even from the 1800's I think.

Edit: I have no idea why I save these.
