[QUOTE="sith-smith, post: 136049, member: 43"] I think without the internet my collection wouldn't be as developed, that's for certain. It terms of private deals where you can go and see the items in person then some of the original joys of collecting are still there. i can remember still with a lot of nostalgia when I drove for hours up the UK to see a collection of Palitoy 12 and 20 backs I was buying. I found them thanks to the internet but there was still that chance to meet a view items. That's happened a few times since, even a few of those dodgy meeting someone in a service station carpark, have happened in recent years!! Collectors shows are where I notice things have really changed for the worse and that's because internet sales are just eaiser and cheaper for a lot of people. I think another aspect is probably because my collection has developed so much, that unlike when I first started going to these show, I have or have had, most of the items on sale. Back at the beginning it was all so new. Perhaps collecting hasn't change, but I have? :? [/QUOTE]
