Somebody has suggested tea-bags.
As I posted on the forums board,
‘Tea Bags??????
I don’t think that the postman will be pleased delivering my soggy used ones.
How do you count the perforations.
What next? The milk to go with the tea & sugar.’

Colnect is the evolution of Islands Phonecards Database. Under the die hard phonecards collectors (like me) a well known site.

After Amir started to get involved it all went much faster and much better. Many nice features and regular updates of the phonecards database.

Colnect is moving up again with the introduction of other collectables.
If Amir manages to bind the collectors of the other collectables the way he did with phonecards collectors, Colnect wil become the leading site for many collectables.
In my opinion (and I do consider myself as a advanced phonecardscollector in Euope) Colnect is THE site for phonecards collectors!

Hope Amir will keep up the good work!!

Seems like a nice site (I’ve seen a few like it before) addressing different needs than those met by Colnect. Collectors of mass-produced collectibles may have a huge quantity of items and for them Colnect is a real revolution. Good luck

My German isn’t very good but it seems like yet another nice niche-specific marketplace. Colnect’s essence is completely different.

Thanks, I made it myself. You’re welcomed to try designing a better one and we’ll see if the members of Colnect will like it better.

“David Cowan is attributed for passing up on eBay”

passing up as in NOT investing in eBay and later adding it to the VC’s anti-portfolio amusing page
