5 Tips For How To Balance Your Collection and Collecting Habits

[@Joakimcomicscenter]

BUY - READ - SELL. The circle of collecting. If you stop at any of these points in the cycle, but keep on moving on the others. Depending on which one, it could follow up with some consequences!

I love these kinds of videos from you! I have the issue of space, which can be a blessing and a curse. It makes me stop and think of what I really want in my collection. Trying to curate it to be the best of the best. I think this adds flavor to collecting. Once in this mindset, it helps you save money. But makes your collection more meaningful. Looking forward to the next video. Cheers!

Thank you, I´m glad you enjoy them. Hope to bring more in the future. Cheers, Ivan!

Great tips! I’ve been struggling with this. I decided to mostly stop buying and focus on reading. Sell ones I don’t love and clear space

[@Joakimcomicscenter]

Thank you. Sounds like the type of plan I can get behind😁✌

Amazing video as usual bro ! And the production quality is amazing too. That last tip was a slap in the face haha. Great detailed advice bro.

[@Joakimcomicscenter]

Thanks Dayday, Glad you liked it! Haha, sorry for the face xD I think the details are important. Without them it just makes it sound like it´s easy and everyone can do it.

Really like these videos. I am trying to control my collection so I don’t run out of space. Which DVD/Blu-Ray I got ride of the cases and now store them in a folder. That’s not possible with comics, without going digital which I don’t enjoy as much. For comics I’ve set myself an endgame. There are a handful of series I want to finish, and I won’t start anything new until these are done. At that point I will decide if there is any other series I want, or if I’ll move to something else.

[@Joakimcomicscenter]

Thanks A T! I didn´t have a word for it before I saw your comment. but I think I´ve set an endgame for Spider-man and Batman as well! Only buying Omnibus Collected editions beyond the endgame point.

Incredible video, Joakim. I'm in the exact same position with exactly the same kind of thoughts. I have a similar kind of video on my Art Fabula channel about downsizing. The process is going well, but I just have to find out what the fundamentals of my life are. What is what I really really want? It's going to take time. Ta hand om dig!

[@Joakimcomicscenter]

Thank you very much, juan! Great to here that the downsizing journey is going well😄Yeah, those big questions are scarry. But I am so glad that I´ve asked them to myself. I would have dared make the changes I´ve made if I hadn´t!

What kind of shelf do you have?

[@Joakimcomicscenter]

I use IKEA Billy shelves with Oxberg doors.

[@jakub_hricov]

Are those 202cm or 237cm high?

[@Joakimcomicscenter]
