A Beginner's Guide to Collectibles

By: FUN Monster

Many of us have items from our youth that we enjoyed collecting, whether they be trading cards, comic books or other items. For many years we kept them in shoe boxes or maybe even folders where they would be safe. Like many people these items were eventually left behind or thrown out during spring cleaning, and never to be seen again. Regrettably with the collectible market today, these are items which could have been worth a good deal of money.
