hi! absolutely loving your collection! just wanted to ask where you get your cards as a uk collector? it’s been really difficult for me to grow my collection personally 😢 any tips would be appreciated ☺️
ahh thank you!! it's a struggle being a UK collector sometimes 🥲 but I mainly use the proxy site neokyo to buy from mercari japan! there's a service fee for each thing you buy & you have to hunt around a bit/be careful about fakes, but I've found really good deals on more expensive pcs, Japan exclusives & stuff like the D-Day Movie benefits. plus people often list pcs in sets so it works out better shipping wise & sometimes there'll be the most random set of pcs but it's EXACTLY the ones you've been looking for 😂 neokyo regularly does coupons for 0 service fees or 20% off your order too, so that's usually when I order a bunch of things at once :') I use ebay and depop sometimes too, people tend to overprice things on ebay especially, but it's still worth looking and I got a bunch of second hand albums that came with the pcs from depop when I started collecting! I've only used instagram a few times to trade & join a couple of GOs, but I know plenty of people use it to buy, it's just hard sometimes cause ig changed the tagging system and the UK specific tags aren't as active as others 😪 hope this is helpful! let me know if you have any other questions 😊💕
@@diarkiive yeah definitely see which you prefer! there's plenty of videos on how to buy from them both if you're unsure cause it can be kinda daunting at first :') happy collecting!! 🥰
me too, I've had 4 damaged cards in the past year 🤧 I wish they'd be more careful with the merch pcs at least, but like I said, idk what they could actually do
hi i hope your still doing videos you sound in UK and i am hoping you are,I am a BTS fan and i am hoping to start doing this,Do you have a e.mail im in Edinburgh and trying to know new friends
Hi! Yeah I'm in the UK, I was just waiting for a bunch of photocards to arrive so that's why I haven't uploaded for a month :') I've added my email on my channel/about page if you wanna message me :)
Love the customizing you did for D-Day! That is so clever, making that pull-out feature. And yes, once Jin is out, it win’t be much long for everyone to be back!! 💜
Thank you!! I thought it'd be a shame to just store them flat otherwise. Jin and Hobi coming back is like the beginning of the home stretch to me (if that makes sense) and now we've got Namjoon's new album to make the wait for Jin go even faster!! 🥹💜
I totally understand your ‘hot take’. I too am a Western ARMY and am ☹️. Not my place either but it looks and feels unsettling. Thank you for sharing your feelings 💜
thank you for understanding, I try not to think about it too much in all honesty, but it's hard sometimes. I just hope that the members are safe and healthy & as happy as possible given the circumstances 💜
for the full set of lucky draws I paid around £94 (which worked out to about £8 per card) and £34 for the Golden on stage pcs (just over £11 per card), which is a LOT I know, but I felt like they were pretty reasonable/standard prices. plus I'd been setting money aside for a few months just for this album :')
Happy New Year to you! Loved the creativity you added to your pages 😊. The watercolor cards were beautiful! Yoongi’s tour was most definitely a highlight for ARMYs in 2023! Happy collecting to you in 2024 🥰
honestly, I have your videos to thank for inspiring me to experiment with my pages/layouts 🙈 thank you, I'm really happy with how the cards turned out! oh absolutely, it really felt like we were part of his tour even if we weren't physically there and I'll never forget it 🫶 happy new year and happy collecting to you too 💜
@@purplejiniee so glad I was an inspiration 🥰 But truly, the credit for your creativity belongs to your experimentation and bringing your own personality to your collection! I can’t wait to see more 🤩
I'm missing is early cards well just dark and wild and SLA SE but I have his love yourself completed, like you I can't spend what people want for his skool luv affair special edition card. It's way to high !!
It's my goal to complete his LY cards next year for sure :') Yeah!! Like I know SLA SE is a more expensive album, but it's not out of print, so some of the prices I've seen that pc listed for are silly! Hopefully you'll be able to find it for a good price 🤞
I got it from HMV in the UK & the BTS UK online store! you can get it from other European music shops too (like Amazon etc.), but I'm not familiar with specific shops from each country :') but this version only comes with one pc and one postcard, so it'll say that in the listing/album details 💜
the punk SG set is soo good agree! i honestly think it's not as talked about cus it was given as a set like if it was random i reckon ppl would go crazy for it (i love the yoongi beret sm)
oh that's a good point actually! I'm glad they didn't make them random though, could you imagine the prices if they were 🥲 Yoongi always looks amazing in a beret, but this look specifically is 100/10 for me haha
hi! the A4 pages I use are the Cosmic Multi Master pages (I get them off ebay) & I use the sleeves from Prism Platinum for larger/postcard inclusions :)
@@purplejiniee Omg thank you, I’m in Ireland and it’s been a nightmare trying to find the different size pockets. I love prism platinum stuff, but just so expensive to ship them here. Thanks for replying 🥹💜
@@trinamc76 it's such a struggle being in the UK too 😅 yeah, I try to stock up on a bunch their stuff at once to make the shipping worth it cause it's sooo expensive! no problem! 🥰
