Getting someones old collection
I got some exciting news. I got an e-mail from a person stating they liked my web site and is going to send me some business cards.
Your web-site caught my attention as I was searching for people that collect business cards. I must say, I was pretty shocked when I found all the web-sites and people that share this interest. Out of all the collectors I read about, you sounded like the right person for me to contact.
I was probably 8-10 years old when I started collecting business cards. I don’t know why I started, but I was really into it. I would lay them all out side-by-side on the living room carpet so I could see just how many I had. I was excited to see how much space they would take up. I even took a picture of them at some point. Around age 14 I lost all interest in adding to my collection, but I have held onto it for the last 10 years. I must be crazy because I really don’t want them anymore, I just can’t bring myself to throw them away. That just wouldn’t be right.
I haven’t counted them, but I estimate there to be over 600 cards. If you want them, I would love to send them to you. You sound really passionate about your collection and it would mean a lot to me to give mine to someone like you.
I hope I don’t sound like a nut. Let me know?
Isn’t this cool. I am so excited, so if anyone else of you no longer want your collection, I am more then happy to have it. Remember all business cards have a home in my collection.
I now have over 57,600 business cards. Thanks!
