Reddit

Just  quick post to link to some of my favourite junk collecting related subreddits.

Thift Store Hauls - I've been following this one for awhile and it's gotten really popular. It's a good way to feel jealous but also helps feed the picking itch when I can't actually go out. Lots of good appreciators of junk!

Flipping - This one has loads of great info on flipping and stuff like selling on ebay and amazon. I think amazon is starting an Australian site, so it will be interesting if they let people sell on there in the same way as they do in he US.

Vinyl - What else needs to be said? a subreddit about all things vinyl!

Analog - This one is all about Film photography. A nice getaway when you are tired of all the digital bias in most photography communities.

Cassette Culture. - I'm convinced cassette collecting is destined for bigger things. They are everywhere and are hitting the time to be a nostalgic sweet spot. Probably won't ever be as amazing as the vinyl revival, but they're a niche I'm interested in. I like that bands bring out small runs of tapes with unique art, too. Reminds me of zine culture.

Game Collecting - All about collecting video games. Lots of awesome pics of huge vintage game collections!

I might do a post about my favourite Facebook groups at some stage, but I feel like it might give away too many secrets!
