I have been advised a good start would be

Thoughts?

Thank you

Hey Sen:

Welcome to the forum.

There are many UK members on this site and I hope that, eventually, you will meet some face to face.

Books are essential, so is the internet, best of all is the collecting community right here are GDC. Don't hesitate to check out items here before spending your hard earned cash. I have been saved from my mistakes by people on this forum.

I have had several good experiences buying from this UK dealer site:

Welcome Sen,

Some collect different types and other collect different varieties of the same type.

I'd suggest that as well as books, go to local UK shows and look at the goodies and talk to sellers.
