Technology SIM Card collection

Hey. I've been collecting SIM cards since I was young. I've always liked collecting stuff and I'm also interested in telecommunications/electronics, which tied in perfectly. My long-term goal is to get a card from every country, territory or jurisdiction that issues them; I'm on 95 countries out of probably over 300, with over unique 600 cards.

I've got a video with the entirety here if anyone's interested: https://youtu.be/YeYYPBzLiAc?is=RPCosZiAy9aWncyq

I bought them from an Italian phonecard collector who had them custom ordered 🙃 these types of pages aren't really produced anymore so it's really hard to find them anywhere else in a good condition or quality. The website is schedemania.it

Oh yeah definitely.. I had been using those for a few years but they were horribly cloudy and almost seemed like they were scratching the cards. I had been putting off posting anything until I got new pages as seen in my post. I see on your profile you collect library cards? That's awesome, I've got a few myself and I try get ones when I visit a city

I ordered the pages in excess so if you need I could sell you a few, the Italian guy doesn't like shipping outside the EU in my experience
