"Why People Collect"



It was asked why people collect a lot of things that it fills their house that they can't live like that anymore. Well some say it is a non-clinical opinion and shouldn't be taken as medial advice at all, but some have came up with a term for this behavior as, “Obsessive-Compulsive Behavior.” This is where they keep or collect everything like a pack rat. Some have it so bad that they need to take medication and with the help of a professional can see where their behavior is dysfunctional and realize that they do need some help for this destructive behavior.
There is no limit to what has been or what might be collected. Some collections have been brought down from generation to generation, some are everyday things that we may find like program flyers from special events, or even badges. Others are more particular on what they collect anything from baseball cards, coins, stamps, military items and spoons from around the country. We possibly know or have such a collection ourselves.
So what motivates a person to collect a certain item? This is some reasons that I have come up with.
It gives them enjoyment
A family Heirloom
It's an investment
It's a conversation piece
So where do you go and find something to collect? You can find things at auctions, swap meets, antique shops, catalogs, the internet, even going to a junk yard, you may find some treasure. You know that saying, “Someone's trash is someone else's treasure.”
Rockin Roxs Gifts has many things to offer with over 3000 items I'm sure there is something to add or even start a collection. How about Clocks, maybe Eagles is your things. We even have swords and fantasy items. Just so many things that I have that I couldn't get it all on the website. So will be changing it from time to time and you never know what I will have on there so you have to come back often. If you're interested in learning more just pop me an email at roxalan@cableone.net and I will be more than happy to let you know what else I have to offer.
Well time for me to go for now... Take care and Happy Businesssssssssssssing everyone!!!!
