OK, so here's another small group of demos to add to the collection. This was a great find for me because I love collecting PS1 demos. The first demo I owned that would be part of a focused collection was for the Playstation. I believe it was OPM #2. I could go back even further and attribute my obsession..... er hobby, to my PC Gamer magazine...

Collecting Demos
I got another small lot of demos from eBay mid October. It was a great deal. I received the pictured demos and about 12 PC games for $12 shipped. Adding the Far Cry demo to my collection was the highlight. It also allowed me to replace more sold items and added a bonus DVD for 187 Ride or Die. These preorder discs are starting to add up and they...
I am slowly returning to collecting demos. Things were rough over the last 6 months. We (wife and kids) had to move because the land lords bought a new house and are selling the house we were in. Luckily the house they bought was in the same town so we were able move into that house but our rent is higher. I was also laid off from work. I have a new job...
Updated Xbox list below May 9, 2008.
A collection moves through stages as time progresses. There are periods of rapid growth and times when it completely stalls. The most unfortunate stage is the thinning. Collections are great because they're a lot of fun but in times of need, easily liquidated. I am in this stage at the moment. My collection is...

So Happy New Year to everyone. I hope we all had a relaxing Christmas / New Year. There was a thread on another board (DP) asking for everyone's collecting goals for 2008. I never really gave it much thought until that moment. I pounded out a quick list and I'll be updating my progress in the blog throughout the year. So without further ado......
I added a Perfect Dark "Not For Resale" cart to my collection from a seller at DP. This is the only such N64 cart in my collection. I used to have a Mario Party 3 but I had to let it go when I needed the cash. I'll get another one later. My digital camera is still not working properly so heres a pic from a recent auction just to give you...
I took my own advice and slowed my collecting down. I've only picked up a couple of demos in the last month or so. My digital camera is a little messed right now so I'll have to use the photo from the auction. I picked up one of the PSP Kiosk Disc #3 UMD's that were all over eBay in October. Most of them were from a single seller. The...

Demos are a challenge to collect because the available resources a limited. There are not a lot of sites dedicated to helping collectors find their way within the little niche in which we have...
Shipping from the US has been a little faster than usual over the summer. It's pretty standard for an item to take about 2.5 weeks to get to my mail box. Lately it has been taking 1.5 weeks. Maybe its just a coincidence but I hope not.

Hello again. It is about time to update the blog again. I received another package in the mail yesterday filled with 30 demos for the collection. Most of which are duplicates of what I already own. This brings up a couple of points worth noting.
1) I live in a small town in the Okanagan (British Columbia) and the chances of finding demos in the wild...
