Im just curious what other people collect? My biggest collection is Money. Most is just coins/bills i get in my change, but my gf works at a bank and I get any good shape older bills that come in. I also dabble in the odd pack of hockey cards just to feel like a kid again with the hope it will contain some mega valuable card or something... It hardly ever works out, but i dream. :p I also try to get interesting Canucks "things". Let me know what you collect, and feel free to post pics of your collections, Ill try to get some up of my collections also.
Not really a hobby or anything but I have a collection of clothing tags and receipts :D

Edit: also, paper toys and postcards.
^^ you have to buy the older bills right?
i have a collection of change, had to start again once cause my mom saw it and took it all and gave me what is was worth in bills, man was i pissed.

Yah, I buy the bills off of her at face value. But its worked out good so far. Got a couple $1000 so far and a bunch of other old ones. It seems with the recession, people are having to cash in their collections for this and that.
Sucks about the collection change dude. I have my buddies trained to go through their change and get any interesting coins that I go through after and trade straight across for what they are worth. That or i Just raid their change jars. Its entertaining for them at times, and always make sure to pay them exactly what i find. :)
Edit: hahaha clothing tags eh? a bit different. :P

Hockey player action figures
do you look for limited editions, or do you mostly just look for your favorite players?

My co-worker collects shot glasses too. Makes it real easy for me to shop for her when I go on holidays and have to bring back souveniers.
I got her a "Hell" shot glass when I was in the Caymen Islands.
Personally, I have a small collection of hockey cards from when I was a kid. A little pissed at my parents still, as they threw out my old collection which included a Lemiux rookie card.
I started to collect S2000 related toys but haven't looked recently. I have the Arcee transformer S2000. Hmmm White S2000 with pink interior.
Trading cards, Stamps.
Although it's getting increasingly hard to find stamp collectors that are not 80 years old, or cheap stamp supplies.

Xbox 360 games. Used to hate purchasing legit games, but the addiction started back in 2007. The number of games I own right now is almost 70.
Here are a few of the more recent titles I keep advertised in my room:

i have a collection of old cameras myself, like leica, rolleis, canon & few other European cameras & there all in working condition, cuz my dad has a collection & it just grew on me so i ended up helping out by making "OUR" collection grow bigger
my dad mostly does European & American cameras but i somehow started adding Japanese cameras to the collection as well
i personally also collect toys cars, lego, trading cards (from sports to pokemon), gundam, music posters, porn & whole lot of random shit but it's not a super big collection compare to some of the other RS members on here

I was thinking of starting a stamp collection. My GF says it's gay but I am in it for the art!
Nonetheless, I let her know her nails were gay.
