Saw a post like this on Reddit once and I thought some of the responses were quite interesting.

I collect all sorts of stuff from vinyl records and vintage game consoles to Harley-Davidson dealer t-shirts.

I'm curious about what some of you guys collect, the weirder the better :D

Vinyl records and playing cards (Western, Hanafuda, and Tarot decks.) The vinyl collection started when I got my parent's old record player and started hitting thrift stores for bargains.

The card thing was sort of an accident; my wife (gf at the time) and I played a lot of Hwatu and cribbage and kept finding decks we liked.

hitting thrift stores for bargains

That's what I enjoyed most about collecting vinyl as well, going into small record stores and just spend an hour or two browsing the isles.

Yeah we finally got a decent used record store in town and it's awesome. Before that, I had to dig through a lot of John Denver to find any ELO and Blue Oyster Cult
