All sorts of stuff over the years. Coins, baseball cards, nautical stuff (I have an old school authentic US Navy Mark V diving helmet from the 30s ), model ships, and debt.

THis is going to sound like a wise ass comment, but its not. I try and collect experiences.....goes with my "try anything once" mindset.

Cigar books. Poker chips, I keep a small one from each casino or regular game I play at, not from people's personal sets at home games. I don't have many yet but hopefully will eventually.

Information is another big one. I like knowing things or how to find things out.

Visits to other countries as well when I think about it. I get a big kick out of visiting somewhere new even if it's only for a short time. 12 countries so far, maybe 1 or 2 more after X-mas.

Hmm...if I'm honest, I have to say I'm a chronic collector. Not a hoarder, but certainly a collector.

For the long haul - records, CDs, music memorabilia. As a recovering music journalist, the stuff just rolled in from promo/PR companies and record labels for years. Now, though, I'm definitely discriminating, narrowing down to just a few artists, labels, and genres. Was a completist for New Order, Orb, Aphex Twin, Muslimgauze, and Autechre among others. Now am getting deep into Boris, Sunno)), and Nadja/Aidan Baker.

More recently - Sheperd Fairey/Obey Giant prints. The original, signed editions.

On and off - watches, pens, vintage audiophile gear.

I collect Hockey (cards, autographed photos, pucks, sticks, game worn goodies) stuff, pretty much anything hockey related. I also collect music, I have over 2000 vinyl albums, over 3000 CDs (countless out of print albums), and any authentic music memorabilia i find interesting.

Although the above mentioned has taken a serious hit as of late, thanks to you guys.

1) Cymbals (85 and counting....)
2) Snare Drums (25 and counting....)
3) Might as well put Drumsticks on the list (at least 200 pairs, probably multiple lifetimes worth)
4) CDs (does that even count as "collecting"?)
5) Coins (in a very modest way)
