I need a catagory for a collector that wants to keep everything but has budgetary constraints that force them to sell something in order to afford another card. I cringe at some of the cards I have sold, and probably will sell in the future, in order to acquire another card. It sure is tough to build a collection when all I do is rotate cards.

Drifter hybrid type.

But mostly, I've survived in this hobby "cause I'm a dancer". In the immortal words of John Belushi.

I started out as a Hoarder almost 50 years ago. I slid into being a Drifter after about 10 years. I eventually graduated to being a Dealer. Shortly thereafter, I became either an extra slow (30 years) Churner or noncataloged Flusher as I sold my collection for literally pennies on the dollar. A little less than three years ago, I returned as a Hoarder again, attempting to replace the collection from long ago. I have eventually settled in as a Pre-War Drifter with a Monster on my back.

I wonder if we'll hear from any Hard Core Dealers?

A Hoarder/Churner who breaks New Year resolutions by the middle of January. Each year I check myself into REHAB shortly after the National.

We'll hear from some Newbies as soon as a kindly Hoarder or Drifter points them in the right direction and the headlights pass.

I don't think I fit into any of those, when I saw The Drifter, I suspected that would have been me, but after reading the description I realized it's not because my goals rarely seem to stay focused for very long before something else catches my attention.

I propose an amendment to the original list and add the following:

The Wanderer – Has loosely focused goals or ever changing goals, could also be referred to as a “Type Collector”. They wonder auction listings, the Bay and the B/S/T unhindered by set, issue, type or player constraints, where others find chaos and disorder the wonderer finds a sense of freedom.

I would be a Wanderer/Churner hybrid, not affraid to sell something I have to augment my funds to acquire something new.

I would be closest to THE DRIFTER, but perhaps i am THE ADDER (a new category - one who continues to really work on his main goal but has to add smaller sub-goals).

I am a Yankee collector, collecting Yankee cards from the early 1900's though now. Obviously this gives me an enormous amount of cards to acquire and i will never get them all. However, after 32 years of collecting, i am so strong that most of the stuff i need is either obscure or getting too expensive, so i acquire slowly.

What i have to do is add little new collection types so that i can keep getting new things inbetween my Yankee buys.

I first added a section of cards of players who were on the Yankees but the card shows them on another team, such as Roger Maris on Cleveland in 1958, Casey Stengel on a Play Ball card, etc.

Then i added a Jewish baseball player collection, which i soon opened up to take in Jewish players from all sports.

The last new little part of my collection is in its infancy, and its trying to get a card of every pitcher that Mickey Mantle hit a home run off of.

I am also a CRACKER too, as i always free my cards from their plastic tombs.

This is fun!!

Good one, Arnie - I am also an "ADDER" by your definition (which I think is a good descriptive category).

Cheers,
Blair

"The Drifter" definition expanded and clarified in the OP to include my understanding of The Adder. Drifters are no longer required to finish a project and may add projects at any time.

I guess I would fall into the Hobby Investor/Hoarder/Drifter

Constantly bottom-feeding and looking for steals(sometimes with the intention to flip all of part of said deal eventually, but the items ultimately NEVER leave my collection). Occasionally, one great deal will shift my focus towards that find..Then I end up hoarding anything that I can find that is similar(sometimes overpaying), all while still keeping an eye out for the next big deal, which often pops up before I am able to complete the previous focus. And then cycle starts all over again.

HOF rookies are about the only constant in all of my madness..

After consultation with Frank I have determined that I am a "Drifting Hoarder" in his classification system.

I'm definitely a hybrid... call me the Flipvestor (or the Hunter).

To me, it's all about the hunt... the chase. Ultimately my focused collections will be sold, but I flip to aid in that hunt.

I am a Hoarder with Cracker tendencies and a bent toward Drifting. I don't know what I collect because it changes all the time, but I keep everything, and all cards are cracked out of their plastic tombs.

Definite bottom feeder. There's something that I really enjoy about a ratty
t206. Says the same guy who enjoys the unrestored class at car shows. It namely means I don't have the funds for graded cards or a restored car.

Bottom Feeding Drifter who Churns Crackers

The Drifter - Has focused goals that once met may refocus in a new goal resulting in the disposition of the old goal .

The Churner - addicts with some level of budgetary constraint ................. collectors who frequently buy high and sell low.

The Bottom Feeder - whose best card is only slightly better than his worst, Fills empty binder sleeves faster than a locomotive to complete sets .

The Cracker - self-described liberator of cards entombed in plastic cases designed for their preservation. Also known as The Feeler

I am definitely a newbie. Just trying to gather as much info as possible from these boards. I also enjoy checking out lots of scans to see what cards/sets that are most interesting to me.

Welcome to the board. There are plenty of guys here that will show you all the scans you can handle, for sure. Beware, this place is highly addictive with no known cure.

Default Time to check in. New Category.
I realize that I have become a churning upgrader, which is a hybrid not in the first post.

If you are a Churning Upgrader, it's time to admit it.

Come clean.

bottom feeder

90% of my stuff is low end, however, I do have a couple of nice cards (to me they are nice)

but I know there is now way I'll be able to afford most of the stuff I've seen posted on these forums.

I am a newbie/churner, although I guess the first one will wear off after a while. Frank, I noticed you didn't have a category for people whose single-minded focus on one project drives all other collecting thoughts from their mind, which more or less describes me. Is that because the associated therapy costs are too high to contemplate?

Is there such a thing as an "Elitist Bottom Feeder?" Only low end stuff, but the best looking of the low end, and only if I've scrutinized the hell out of it to the point that I find it justified to have...but again only with low end

Investor/Drifter.

Try to keep the ones I like but then sell many of the ones that don't fit into what I think I'm collecting at the time. Have a huge pile of 1800's-1940's that don't say Ruth so I end up selling those but can't let all of them go for some reason. But will sell anything to buy the whales on my list.

I am a perpetually confused hoarder-drifter. There should be some type of treatment facility for this condition.

No question...hoarder.

The only thing that could separate me from my cards was a two year cancer fight and having to clean most of the collection bare to supplement my disability check.

Now just getting it all back bigger and better than before.

Although I have to admit I love being "the sniper" too.
