Techie Collectibles

It is fun to collect items especially those which are rare or are not usually found anywhere, those which are extinct and the antique ones. The products of technology are also fun collectibles from fun gaming gadgets to electronics. Books of well-known authors, coins from back then and money of different countries. It is a fun hobby to collect different items and reasons for it are historic, it could bring back years of old or how it has been when people are making use of that stuff.

It is fun collecting but items are pricey because they are not usually available anywhere and only a few have it. The gaming gadgets that are fun to collect are paintball guns, game consoles, portable DVD players, laptops, iPods – All are categorized under techi stuff. It may all be available today but definitely it will not be in the markets a few years from now. I am quite sure that newer ones will be out; at least you could recall in the future that such stuff was in use before – and you got the privilege to make use and own such. Take care of your belongings today to show to your kids how life was before.

Art collections are also for keeps, from the original creations of the artists to its reproduction, for as long as it is signed by the artist. Fantastic movies like those in DVDs, VCDs, laser discs, VHS, and betamax tapes. There is no more production of such tapes – only transferring from the old tapes to what is used today, the DVDs. I am not so much into movies; I would rather collect gaming consoles like the PSPs, Nintendo DS, and more. Actually I have Play Station 1, game and watch, Family Computer and the oldest, the Atari.

I would love to collect paintball guns to see how it has really evolved. Paintball guns were used as markers, the same name it was called, tree-marking guns. They used it as markers powered by compressed gas to mark trees and trails by the foresters. The first paintball field opened in New York, 1982. It has become so popular that the guns were improved over the years, even the pellets has undergone evolution. Paintball has definitely made devotees all over the world.

It is always fun to have something from the past but we have to take care of our things and treasure them, for they are historic. They will give us memories from the past. They are valuable. And if it is really not important to you, keep it in a safe place, for as time passes by, you will earn a lot from those stuff that you have kept from the past depending also on the availability and condition. Some of these stuffs are inherited from parents, from grandparents or from great grand parents or some remains from the ancient times. It will not be functional, you will not be able to use them but they remain valuable because of its rarity. But not all old items are antiques for collectors, some are just kept for the memories they bring.
