Do you guys focus on collecting album or photocards more i never seem to make my mind up which to focus on and just end up swapping
How do you collect things?
When I first got into K-pop, I was absolutely obsessed with collecting photocards. But after discovering Cortis, I started collecting albums too, so know i do both lol
I do both. I’ll buy albums from groups that I’m not fully into but still like the songs, but I collect pcs/albums for groups/members I Stan. But it really depends, I just don’t have the space any more for albums, but I love CDs.
I like collecting CDs, I don't really care about the rest of the stuff. I keep the CDs, but I leave all the photobooks in boxes. That's why I prefer to buy digipaks or album versions that come with accessories or other things.
I prefer to get albums for all the inclusions though i hate buying from places at full price so i usually use proxy or people reselling sealed albums for cheap
Well i kind-of do both . My strategy to not go broke while collecting is : if there is really an album that I want I just try to look for it second hand with pcs of my bias sometimes it works , win is win I get the album and the pcs at thesame time . If i don't find it second hand i buy the album new and manifest to pull my bias if i don't pull hom i just trade the pcs i got for my bias or sell them to buy the one i like . That's my main strategy, but sometimes i stumble onto some collectors who are downsizing their collections or just stopped collecting, they do sell bundles and set of pcs that are affordable compared to how many pcs you get so I just get these and if i get all my bias pcs from the same era like all the pcs without owning the album , i buy the album without the pcs which is relatively cheap . The best strategy ever.
I collect albums and for my fav groups I try and collect the pre-order photocards. I just leave the the regular photocards alone unless I really really want it
i focus on buying albums first, and then when i'm close to finishing that i move onto the pcs (since i collect album cards mostly ~ currently collecting ot8 skz album cards😭)
Ive done that so many times recently lol
I bought loads of photocards a few monthsa ago and now im buying more albums and i have loads I have needed to trade out 🤣
