He is not alone in doing this, my colleague does exactly the same thing.
Maybe its the value of a untouched one.

Mine is gardening.
And collecting Playmobil Pirate series.
Stop collecting for a while now due to lack of display space.
Contemplating on selling my collection and use the space for another 4-footer

@felix_fx2,

I play this F2P MMO called Rappelz. The local version published by AsiaSoft as RappelzSEA closed down earlier this year, so I went back to playing on the US servers. I think the currently hyped MMO is this one called AION. I have no idea how good that game is. It's P2P so I don't bother. The company that runs the US version of Rappelz is working on releasing 2 new titles, Aika and Allods.

I tried Cabal SEA and gave up after the initial hype, because the game was boring to me. Great graphics, but the game play and the ability of other players to KS really annoyed me.

About model kit values, I guess it depends on the rarity of the item, and the condition. I seldom buy kits for resale later on, since they're usually part of my personal collection. But when it is necessary, I will have to part with them sooner or later.

@Simon,

Haha yes I know what you mean. I used to build them, then I realised, there's only so much space in a small HDB flat that one can devote to displaying their precious model kits. So I dismantled all my kits and stuffed them into 3 big plastic tubs with rollers on the bottom. I left the unbuilt ones untouched and let them stack up in the room neatly.

If I had a choice, I'd be building my remaining unbuilt ones, but space constraints prevent me from doing so.

do a huge diorama piece on your living/dining room wall and do a epic showdown with all of your kit

[bryan]

Gentlemen,

There is no such thing as collecting model kits. Its called 'stashing' or 'hording'

[barmby]

Mine.

1) Movies' Postcards collection
2) Jogging
3) Football ( watch and play the game )
4) Movies

[christopher.wtc]

I did that once, and it was ridiculous. I had too many built ones to begin with. I lost count how many I had, it was probably 250+ built ones and about 150-200 more still in their boxes.

Space isn't just the issue. If you keep the models out for display, you have to deal with dust and what not. I don't know why but recently it seems the dust in the air is more thicker than usual. The top of my SunSun 4 foot tank gets dusty really fast, even though it's far away from the nearest window.

The list:

Collecting, building and giving away built models,
RC drifting(recently)
TKD, Mountain biking, swimming, admiring others planted tanks, trekking, designing and DIYing.
