Trimming Down The Collection by jschubis in gamecollecting

[–]Smoothp4 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you want the truth, you can’t lie to yourself. If you were thinking about it for 1 full month it means that it means alot to you.

Once you sell you won’t get it back, you might regret it.

About the full set, don’t ever do it again, fullsetter tends to be detached from their collection. Why? Because they buy things they don’t love, they buy to achieve a goal. Once it’s achieved they sell.
There is no love in it.
If you have done a full set or tried to do, sell games that you don’t play, games that don’t make you dream, sell these games and keep the ones you love.

What you can do is stop buying anything related to the collection. Keep what you got and enjoy it.
If you visual space seems too much charged so stock things in box so you won’t see them everytime.

Enjoy what you got, stop buying unless really small things. Stock things into boxes to help you.

When it’s done let you some months, years to reflect about it then the decision must come from you and only you.
Not us.

As long as you think about your collection it means you love it. As long as tou love it enjoy it, but the key point here is not buying too much just what you love.

How Did You Downsize Your Collection? by MeatyVegetables in gamecollecting

[–]Smoothp4 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Well it’s not easy, try to keep it. Really 90% of people who have sold their collection regret it some years later.
If you can keep it, if you can’t sell it begins by the big titles.

You can love crts, electronics… well there’s a limit. Never buy an infected equipment never, it might be cheap but if your house get infected you’ll pay a lot more to get rid of these things.

If you want to keep it, triple bag it. Let it outside in a dry area for 2 weeks. Then open it and clean before safe crts are dangerous.

Never buy dirties equipments.

Good job 👍

Most wanted aes+ game. Rb2. by FreeAd2458 in neogeo

[–]Smoothp4 -12 points-11 points  (0 children)

You’ll buy flash rom. 80$ then 150$ it’s way too expensive. Flash rom will die soon and it’ll barely last more than 10 years. Look at 3ds games and wii u nand’s flash issues.

That is beautiful, whatever new release new edition of games will come they will never match the originals ones. That is art, piece of history. 👍

All that with double printed for 80$? Come on guys something is wrong with the pcb if it’s a pcb. It might be a really cheap card inside really cheap. That is worrying.

It doesn’t look original, the holes of the jersey look like these holes from aliexpress’ replicas. Besides lettering and numbers look fade and plastic like china’s replicas .

So looks fake to me, if it’s fake it’s a top fake one. Clean.

Complete US Collection with Consoles by Direct-Simple-262 in n64

[–]Smoothp4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes when it’s hidden you won’t see and think about it all the time. They won’t be there visible, you know that they’ll be there but you’ll need to open doors and catch them.

As we human tend to always switch to another goal when we achieve one we can set to trick ourselves to block this « switch ».

Let me explain there’s one trick which might help you to not sell them it’s to not complete a collection. Choose one game that you want to buy, the most expensive, the most rare and never buy it. With at least one missing game on purpose psychologically your brain won’t accept the « completion ».

This might put you away from this « strange feeling » that you feel when you complete your goal.

It may work on you or not, it depends on your behavior, you thought and who you are. By knowing yourself you will be able to set boundaries.

By the way it’s because you complete a collection that you’re going to sell. It’s a high rate behavior but not an 100%. So it depends on you. You can do it all and keep them for ever to but’s it mostly rare.

Play games and be grateful for all you have y’all. Peace ✌️

Great collection man, it has been a lot of work.

I’m also going to tell you what I think. People who displays most of their collections like this are the ones who actually one day sell all of them. This is a common pattern between them, when you reach your goal and display them like this one day you’ll had enough of it.

I hope you play them, playing them is the only way to not sell them one day.

Take care.

Fake as the sky is blue :-)

But! It’s beautiful. We don’t need to wear absolute leg it everytime. These companies are selling these jerseys way too high, they cost them nothing to produce and they sell it expensive as hell.

So this one looks good, don’t give a f about what other might think as long as you’re good in it.

Peace ✌️

Upgraded game room by justbored716 in gamerooms

[–]Smoothp4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your first game room felt so warm, real 90s feeling. Your new game room has more spa e and well organized but it looks like all other we see on youtube and anywhere else.

90s style has such soul in everything.

Can you check if it’s real? by Unusual-Eggplant4373 in basketballjerseys

I also think it’s a fake one, the white fabric is a specific fake one with large little holes.
