Two Broke Watch Snobs

Ep. #128 Collecting Without Consumerism


Listen Later

It's something we've said a lot - "collect in a vacuum" - "collect in a bubble" ect ect - it's the idea that as a collector what influences your purchases should only ever be your own choices. But what does that really mean?
