Non Travel

Now I’m starting to have plenty of travel posts there may not be a relevence for any rubbish outside of travel.

However, you can select from the drop down menu some things not related to travel. In summary any non-travel posts are likely to be about Newport County, special occasions, perhaps something interesting I learn at work, if i get reincarnated maybe even some healthy eating crap… not that there isn’t enough of that on the web!

Collections

One thing I do tend to enjoy is collecting random things. Even since my parents bought me my first Ninja Turtle figure I have always been collecting something! Some examples could be…

Corinthian Football figures

I have been collecting my Mastermind subject; Corinthian football figures since 1995 and started trading them on eBay since 2002. Also known as ProStars, MicroStars or simply ‘bigheads’ I reckon I’ve shifted about 20,000 in that time and still have around 12,000 items in stock today! However, sadly I decided to sell what’s left of my personal collection in May 2019.

Hopefully it is only a matter of time before I write about this journey in more detail, they’re only football figures but they have been present in 75% of my life and they have funded some incredible experiences! It has also made me extremely knowledgeable of European football during the 90’s and 00’s and also helps with Georgraphy and flags!

Before I get around to a post, why not check my eBay page, CRMG Corinthians?

Funko POP! Vinyl figures

Buying my partner a Bing Bang Thory Sheldon Cooper figure a few backs seemed so innocent at the time! As the popularity of Funko products has grown worldwide so has our own collection!

We currently have streamlined our collection to Harry Potter releases and the odd favourite one we really like that I’m sure we be detailed in a blog soon. In addition, Kay also collects the Beauty and the Beast range and I’ve recently started collecting Toy Story releases, a bit of a bummer as the rarest one – a ‘flocked’ Lotso sells for around $2,000!

Coins

Now here is something I have already written a post about! And you can view it by clicking this text! *photos to come*

Football Shirts

I would say I have ever collected shirts per se, but when your clubs are chucking out two or three a season they soon add up! In 2018 I decided to sell most of my older shirts and even made a blog post about it, that you can view by clicking here. *photos to come*

Similarly I have also accrued a good deal of football programmes that don’t really appeal to me – and they’re bloody heavy! They’ll probably be job-lotted in eBay before they make their way on here sadly.
