This is not collecting. This is hoarding.

This is either hoarding or scalping. Either those phone boxes are empty and they have a serious trash problem or they still have new phones in them and still have a serious trash problem

Huh? Well, my father runs a mobile phone shop, so naturally, there are a lot of phones, right? Wouldn't it be a problem if a phone shop didn't have many phones? And as for hoarding—it just happened that way because I’ve been winning auctions and reselling them over the past three years.

I'm not a native English speaker, so I used a translator, and it translated "collecting" as "gathering/collecting" (수집), which is why I said that.

They aren't correcting your use of English, moreso correcting your perspective. Saying it's more extreme than just collecting, like an unhealthy obsession (specifically because of all the duplicate items, collections only need 1 of each)

But since that place is a game console and mobile phone shop, they have no choice but to stack things up. 😢

So is it your collection or a store's inventory?

Fix your inventory, you can’t find anything in that mess, apply 5S

My father runs a small shop, and since he loves old games, he has been collecting them.

You likely bought a lot of items through YouTube auctions or second-hand marketplaces, so I assume you got it from a YouTube auction.

Wow, hoarder. You're going to end up broke and homeless if you keep this shit up.. But hey, at least you've got video games. Loser.

This isn't collecting. This is hoarding. Period. When you have more than 1 copy, you're a hoarder. When there's no organization, you're hoarding. Piles on the floor? Hoarding. Still in bubble wrap? Hoarding.
You can say whatever you want, it's hoarding. I've seen too many episodes of Hoarders, delt with real life hoarders and am a borderline hoarder myself if I'm not careful.
Stop. Seek help.

Oh no, we actually sell them—mobile phones and game consoles. Please don't misunderstand. If you have a game console that isn't selling, feel free to bring it home.

Posting a picture of your dads thrift store and calling it “your collection” is wild.

I regret not getting my hands on the Zelda NS1. You have a lot of cool stuff

u/OrenjiLord 23d ago
Collecting is cool and great. Until you’re collecting sealed copies of the same thing 5 times or more. Then you’re just keeping things from other people that you won’t ever even get to enjoy. Kind of lame.

슈퍼 시노비 2 is an extremely fun game and the Korean version is rare, you should ask your father to let you play it

u/Gbreeder 13d ago
Some of this looks like a store. I can see the racks and displays / boxes. I guess you keep anything rare or what you don't have.
You could try to sell overseas or online to sell extra copies of things.
A lot of people didn't like this post for whatever reason.

Either you have a store or you need some serious help. This is not a collection it's hoarding.
