Football jerseys. Mainly NFL but I do have a few college. The last one I got was my boyfriend's Green bay Packers jersey. I moved to WI from Florida, so, when I went to his place for the first time I saw it and wanted it! lol he never wore it anyway. I like it because it isn't the pukey green color, it's the pretty white, with yellow and green trim. I had never seen one like it before, I usually just see the green ones.

Do you have them on display anywhere

[Nikki1989]

Same, vinyl, CDs and just about anything else REAL music related.

[CubaPirate]

Do you have a prized possession 🤔

[Nikki1989]

Not one per se, but I have many original pressings that I will never play. They are purely collection pieces.

Nice 👍

Thanks for MHO. Nice to see a real music fan on here.

It's a shame we can no longer save ticket stubs anymore since digitalisation don't you think

I collect music, but it's nearly all CDs or, more recently, uncompressed digital files (FLAC files). At last count, I've got about 3400 CDs. But it's the music itself that matters to me, and having it in a clean, digital format. I do have vinyl - there are still 12" mixes that have yet to be released on CD or digital, though over the last 20 years many of those 12" versions have been - but I stopped buying vinyl as soon as CDs became available except in situations where (at the time) you could only get that music on vinyl. Most of that vinyl has only been played once or twice, on a linear-tracking turntable with a Shibata stylus (highly accurate, minimal wear, but require linear tracking), just enough to record it.

I don't really have a great reason for keeping the vinyl other than I paid for it already. I suppose that's true of the CDs too - my "real" collection is digital files, over 40,000 tracks with full file tags and album art. A single micro-SD card might not look as impressive as 200 LPs or 3400 CDs, but it's far more useful and lugging around physical media is a huge pain. I used to do that as a mobile DJ, and digital files are just a million times better - and aren't going to be stolen, unlike physical media.

I also have a knife collection. Only a handful of real "collectables" - most of it is production knives that are actually useful rather than just stuff that is cool-looking but functionally useless. Lots of Benchmade, Spyderco, Cold Steel, Victorinox, along with some more custom stuff like a TOPS Dawn Warrior.

Board games. I have 2 double door closets full of them. Everything from the usual standards to older games across the decades. Even have a monopoly set that still has the wooden houses and hotels.

Dice, magic cards and beermats. Also my husband collects small unusual music instruments and I kinda jumped in gifting them often and being interested to further his collestion.

I collect fidget toys. I needed them when I was going through my depression I had a bunch to help me out. I've just been collecting more tho. Plus I lost 5 when I lost my keys so I bought more.

[NathanDavis]

no, nothing...

I've forbidden myself from collecting... or my mild OCD could turn me into a hoarder really quick... lmao
