There seems to be a common belief that "collectible" items are also valuable, or that retro/vintage items are automatically rare. But is this the case? And should you collect retro things as an investment, as some are led to believe?

I used an iPod Touch (4 different versions) as my main-device for, err.. lots of years.. I’ve recorded many pieces of music on and, on 2 occasions, used one to finish a gig when a power problem took my synth out.. I only took up an iPhone on the insistence of my partner. I have a life limiting condition (MS) and she wants to make sure she can check on me, occasionally.. For some reason I don’t feel “connected” (🙄) to the iPhone and certainly couldn’t use it to finish a gig because she might ring to check up me and I doubt if I could work that into the mix.. I’ve a collection of small, Casio keyboards (SA-1, SA-2, VL-1, SK-1 + spares&parts) which I hadn’t intended starting, it just happened.. Also attracted by Hardware MIDI Sound Modules from 80’s/90’s. Not because I want a collection, but because they’re still amazing and REALLY cheap.. My other IRL collection is a (as far as I’m aware) complete set of BBC Essential Sound Effects C.D.s, which is sort of valueless since the BBC made their entire SFX archive available on-line..

I think it would be really interesting to know how social media play a part in the madness of collecting things. I always try to contain myself when I see some cool looking pictures on some retro game collection or audio collection. But I’m always attempted even if it doesn’t make any sense for me. An other great podcast mate! Thank you 🙂
