I don't understand why you'd want to collect duplicates of the same item over and over?

This is the best summary I could come up with:


Years later, in 2012, my girlfriend and I found a dozen or so Titanic VHS tapes for sale in a secondhand store.

It’s a pretty awesome feeling to know that so many people are invested in helping the collection grow.

We’ve had so many deliveries that my PO box was temporarily closed, and I was brought in for questioning by the staff.

It gets pretty wild, with hundreds of cardboard boxes and packages cascading over my dining table.

It feels very special to own a piece of history from one of the world’s most famous historical events.

I’m hoping there might be a way to be considered some day, but ultimately I don’t need a record to be proud of my collection.

I think this is wholesome. This guy knows what he likes and good for him!
