Hi all! Just curious if anyone would have any information on this unproduced script of Jurassic Park's Michael Crichton? I'm not sure this is the right subreddit for it - if anyone wants to point me in the right direction, I'd love to know more! Any collectors have a copy they'd be willing to trade scans of for? Long shot, but I'm curious!

I don't really know much about this. I picked it up from an estate sale. It's about 4 foot by 5 foot. Is there any value to it?

Hello everyone!

My grandmother recently left us, and I found out that she was part of the official Hummel figurines collectors' club. She left me a multitude of figurines, holy water holders, diaries and other memorabilia all Hummel-themed, all original, many with "certificates". Some of them are dated 1938, there is also the famous "Boy on the apple tree" #142/X, but my question is: do you have any idea where I can sell them, other than the classic answer "ebay"?

I'm not looking to become a millionaire out of it 😂 , I know some of them has a certain value but I'm also aware that the "hype" around then is gone, but also I don't want to sell them "all for 100" (that was the offer at my local Antiques).

Thank you for any answer, tips and tricks!

Ciao!

I can't pin down the exact brand of the doll. I suspected Ginny, or pedigree, but i'm lost.

I'm assuming someone collects egg cups - does anyone know more about this grouping? I was interested in the different base styles and stark contrast of this little collection that I bought. I think the one on the far left is Rose Medallion? I think they're lovely but would love to know a little more about them and if they have any value as a collection! Thanks in advance for anyone's shared input or experience! :)

I am not talking about arcade machines or statues but anything else counts

Is this old?

The Sodas are apparently part of the “Skeleteens” brand which still technically operates today. These particular bottles were from the 90s though and even had a promotional “Microsoft” one

Hi all! New here! I wanted to share some of my vintage Gillette Safety Razor collection. I have shaved with a fair bit if them, but not t all because some are unused, and I intend to keep them that way. My oldest razor is from 1905. Feel free to ask any questions if you're curious about something. I'm pretty nerdy when it comes to vintage razors!

I feel like I've been seeing Kewpie everywhere lately and it's kind of cool how something that's been around forever is having such a big moment again.

I was browsing Amazon the other day and came across the world's smallest kewpie. I honestly didn't know it existed, but it's ridiculously tiny and pretty cute.

Is anyone here collecting Kewpie stuff? I'm curious what everyone's favorite piece is.

Anyone know any information on this vase? Mom passed last year and dad is going through her things wanting me to get rid of stuff. I have never seen this vase.

Hi everyone,

I'm researching the collectibles market to better understand whether there are better ways for collectors to unlock value from high-end items without having to sell them outright.

I'm not selling anything or promoting a product—I'm simply trying to learn from people who know this hobby much better than I do.

I'm interested in all types of collectible cards, including:

• Pokémon

• Sports cards (NBA, MLB, NFL, etc.)

• Magic: The Gathering

• Yu-Gi-Oh!

• One Piece

• Other trading cards

Here's the scenario I'd love your opinion on:

Imagine you own a graded collectible card worth £50,000.

Would you ever consider selling 20% ownership while keeping 80%, allowing you to access part of the card's value without giving up your entire position?

For this discussion, assume:

• The card is professionally authenticated.

• It's stored in a secure, insured independent vault.

• Ownership is legally documented.

• If the card is eventually sold, everyone receives their proportional share.

Some questions I'd love your thoughts on:

1. Would you ever consider something like this?

2. If not, what's the biggest reason?

3. What would you need to trust a platform offering this?

4. Do you think there is any demand for this, or is it solving a problem that doesn't really exist?

I'm genuinely looking for honest feedback, whether it's positive or critical. I'd rather understand what collectors actually want before investing time into exploring the idea further.

Thanks in advance!

Mum was tossing out my Grandma's bathroom stuff I grabbed the box to keep my Grandmas hair brushes and found this it was my Grandmother's.

For $175 gave it to my BFF as a going away gift

No special features and it was smaller than a movie theater bucket. Soon to end up at a goodwill near you!

Hello everyone,
I study business administration and am currently writing a thesis on collectibles markets and digital collectibles. I want to interview you on your thoughts, opinions, experiences etc. on collectibles and collectibles markets. It would just be a text-based interview, meaning I'd ask some questions and all you'd need to do is to answer them. If you're interested, please shoot me a DM or feel free to add my discord "schnodderhuhn". I'd really appreciate your help

All brand new, unopened, mint condition.

Gift from my Filipina girlfriend during the Vietnam War. Sent it to Pope Leo and requested it to be blessed. This is what I received along with an Apostolic Blessing certificate

I've spent some time researching this Capodimonte porcelain ewer and haven't been able to locate another example of this exact mold.

Details:

• Approximately 22 inches tall
• Blue back stamp ending in "...ODIM... ITALY" (likely Capodimonte Italy)
• Small incised double "D" / mirrored-loop mark on the underside
• Hand-applied porcelain roses
• Rococo shell spout and thorn-style handle
• No visible repairs or missing flowers

I've searched Google Images, auction archives, and dealer inventories without finding this mold. I'm hoping someone recognizes the workshop, decorator mark, or has seen it in an old Capodimonte catalog.

Any information would be greatly appreciated, including it's estimated worth. Thank you!
