    Hi to all,

    I'm occasionally buying antiques when I go on vacation as a souvenir.
    I'm not expert so hopefully I will learn something new on this forum.

    I do buy antiques instead of fridge magnets :)
    Should have worded it better :)

    You'll find I have much fun with titles and such but it's all in fun, never malicious. :)

    Greetings, SVK! What an interesting thing to do on vacation. Are there particular kinds of things you bring home? Care to show some off?

    I walk to the shop and if something catches my eye I buy it if it is within the budget.
    I'm collecting coins and bank notes.Unusual Silver coins and old stuff.

    Nothing dear or precious, I have very little knowledge so I usually stick with low budget. That way it doesn't hurt my pocket :)

    I have almost always done this... Buy what I like. And it's a good thing for I have a lot.
    If I at least get my money back or make money on much of it...then great. :)

    I buy the stuff to keep it. If you like something, why to sell it ? :)

    My 'plan' was to eventually sell most and buy small such as autographs.
