I have been collecting for nearly 50 years and still cling to the old hobby philosophy.....

Collect what you like and not for profit.

If you make money consider that a bonus. Many here at Blowout and other boards will offer opinions and tell you what you should collect but I encourage you to do your homework and really see if you genuinely like a certain product or just buying into the hype.

I know this doesn't answer any of your questions but hopefully it will set some guidelines for you as you start this hobby quest.

By the way...where in Germany are you located? I ask because I still have relatives there and have four previous exchange students that we stay in contact that live in various areas of Germany.
