I agree, I personally cannot stop collecting books, it's like I am starting my own book shop, I agree, no need to shame people.

Collecting is a way to achieve "ownership" of certain things, because ownership is the most intimate relationship one can have to objects. For instance, owning a movie and watching it in one's own home is a greater thrill to a movie collector than watching the same movie in someone else's home. Collectors may collect things they feel "obliged" to have, not necessarily love to have. The act of collecting may offer some "peripheral pleasures," such as interacting with like-minded collectors. The desire to see one's collection grow is the one thing shared by all collectors. Also, it is often impossible for anyone other than the collector to understand the collection's importance. These are some of the points made in the Film Quarterly magazine article "The Contradictions of Video Collecting," written by Charles Tashiro in 1996. The article is mainly about movie collecting, but the psychology discussed in it can easily apply to other types of collecting.

I collect enamel pins, brooches, and button pins whether they be fashion pins, fandom pins, or pins from places I've traveled... I also collect figurines whether it be a cute glass bird from an antique shop or a vinyl figure from a fandom I understand the emotional connection I have with all of these objects and when it comes to my 400+ pin collection I could tell you how I obtained each one happily!

My husband and I collect counties. Correct, counties. We have found this gets us out of our comfort zone and take the roads less traveled. There is something about crossing a county line and getting a photo of the county's courthouse. How many counties in the United States have you visited? As of 8/8/21 we have collected (visited) 681 counties out of 3,143 of them.

I collect cookbooks and often feel guilty for having so much more than I can use. I have more perfumes than what is practical too, and I’m trying so hard not to turn it into a collection, but I keep wanting to buy more scents that I like.

I also collect scents. I found them so magical, In one hand, you have the material experience of the packaging, the beautiful bottle, and on the other, you have an intangible experience. A scent can be nostalgic, sensual, fun, energizing... the possibilities are endless
