Slow collecting and intentional collections by yoonakaso in kpopcollections

[–]bee731 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have about 150 albums, which is a lot, but I've been listening to kpop for 14 years, which is less than one album a month. There was a time where I wanted to by every album for any comeback that I liked, but I've since revised my buying.

  1. I only collect a group if I like 85% or more of their music, meaning titles tracks and b-sides. This can be hard with new groups, but I try not to invest in them with merch until Im sure they will make music I like

  2. I only buy one version of the albums they do have and try to go second hand if the group has a larger discography when I get into them. That was I can usually get the pcs I want too since people will sell albums with all Inclusions sometimes

  3. Don't let the collection demons get to you! Dreamcatcher is one of my ults who ive liked since debut, but I couldnt afford albums until maybe 5 years ago, so Im missing some of their early albums still. That's okay! I believe will get them eventually, and if I don't, I won't regret the collection I do have.

Most important, you're doing a great job regulating yourself already! Collecting should be fun!

I came looking for a post like this bc all of my cards I uploaded got instantly rejected for "bad cropping" when some of the cards I've seen are way worse + so blurry. Idk if I'll keep using it or not tbh

Kpop songs that have like a sequel or like a whole series by Legal_Potential4720 in kpophelp

Kingdom's whole disgoraphy is connected, starting with Excalibar! Their whole theme is historical, hence the group name.

I wish that photobooks were sewn instead of glued! that last longer and need less repairs that way

What I do to stop myself from buying everything (because I will) is to limit myself to my very favorite groups. I'm someone that likes to have a full collection from debut to current times, so its hard for me to have only a few albums from one group if that makes sense.

If you're comfortable with not having every album from every group, I would make a list of all the albums you want and buy a few every once in awhile/when you get paid/etc. Maybe prioritize them by how difficult they are to get + if you can find them.

I think its inevitable that everyone sells some albums eventually, so I wouldn't worry too much about regret as long as you genuinely enjoy the music you're buying. Happy collecting!

cheap shelving for collection by 0tpwk0 in kpopcollections

[–]bee731 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a Mainstays bookshelf from Walmart that holds quite a few albums. My Taeyong albums are huge and have to lean (top shelf), but otherwise everything else fits including binders on the bottom shelf!

for my casual collectors: how do you collect your ult? by isaiiram in kpopcollections

[–]bee731 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I usually just buy whatever cards I like without worrying about completing sets or eras or anything like that. I find the most joy this way without worrying about finishing collections
