There's collectables as in over priced stuff and collectables as in what ever you like to collect.

I think the former is more useful, and the latter could be anything.

The GGP was probably thinking the former, the GP being pedantic used the latter.

If people are collecting them, they're collectable.

Sorry, a bit cheeky but if you are regularly buying old computer hardware then you are collecting.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with it. I still have my ZX Spectrum 48k, Atari ST and the Archimedes my parent acquired when the school was dumping them for PCs.

It's a collection.
