In this topic I would like to invite everyone to post their personal milestones related to CataWiki. It is sometimes nice to be able to share with people that you have done or achieved something. Then we can talk about it again here in the CataWiki Café and that way we can make it a nice drink.

Major CataWiki milestones deserve a separate message, so only personal milestones here.

My own milestone is that I have now posted my 1000th forum post. Unfortunately that wasn't the message I wanted to post (no wise advice or anything), but it's still a milestone.

Now on to the next milestone: more entered items than messages?

... and set a certain time limit for that; end of the year or so?

Just added my 50,000th collector's item in Catawiki. A nice number and what better way to enter than one of "gold" (3236295).

Thank you Rene and Marco for this great site in which I have an overview of all my collections (and there are quite a few) can lose. No whining about 'Catawiki is a glorified eBay' . No, Catawiki is a place where a collector can indulge and enjoy many hours of fun every day. Of course there is also a need to earn. Such a complicated database does not come naturally and must be well maintained. And a place on the internet is not also free. The use of Catawiki is.

Also thank you all the programmers for every new change that makes it easier to use.

And thank you all the administrators who, despite the many criticisms, sacrifice their free time to 'clean' this catalog and keep it organized.

Furthermore, thanks everyone who adds new items to this growing source of information.

I am far from done entering. Many thousands of flippos, figures, books, etc. are still waiting with me for a place in this catalog. Enough items, what I lack is time. As far as I'm concerned, they can retire me tomorrow.

Waiter, a round for the whole place !!

@Ted
Just added my 50,000th collectible item in Catawiki. A nice number and what better way to enter than one of "gold" (3236295).

Congratulations on this great milestone. Few will be able to place this number of items in their collection.

Too bad the government is (perhaps) somewhat thwarting you with the shift in the state pension age, otherwise we could enjoy it a little faster of your total collection.

@Ted,

Congratulations on this golden milestone!

And thank you for your kind words about the site. They are an incentive for us to further improve the catalog and the maintenance of your collection. Just like you, we still have plenty of plans. If you are involved with Catawiki you can never really retire again ;-)

And thanks to all the administrators who, despite the many criticisms, sacrifice their free time to keep this catalog 'clean' and well-organized.

Thanks, Ted.

I don't want to spoil the fun in any way, because it is certainly a milestone, but to keep it clear, some explanation:

Today you have 50,109 items in your profile . All links are also counted, so that you can see exactly how many items you have from a certain collection area. So there are double counts. (It works the same way with the total counts on Catawiki's homepage.)

The only correct physical numbers are indicated under 'My collection' behind each collection area. I then come to you with 'only' 41,112 items.

Don't kill the messenger. (;-)

it is a respectable number of beautiful. @ Arco that total count has been quoted before is still quite sloppy. Take this collection of 20% deviation, is this a normally accepted margin of error?

Arco

If you add all items to 'my collection' you really get 50,109

You add the totals to 'my profile' (where the links are indeed are counted) then you come to 51,995.

It is time for a new calculator. :-)

But should it be totally wrong, my gratitude remains!

Congratulations Ted! Then you certainly have a lot of free time? ;)

50,000 items can certainly be obtained, but then you still have to spend a lot of time entering them. In short, a great achievement and certainly a milestone to reflect on!

I have a whole evening to get closer to my next milestone. I found 2000 items in my collection quite an achievement to achieve! Good luck and have fun with your collections and on to the 75 (100?). 000 ?? ;)

@DisneyMeentwijc

Then you certainly have a lot of free time? ;)

Now that's the great thing about Catawiki. Much of my collection was already on it and was more a matter of replenishing it instead of adding it. Enter.

What remains now has to be scanned or photographed and entered. But that's a nice part of the hobby.

It's three slices of a meter. But on the bottom shelf a lot of metal and new records, much thicker covers. On that shelf about 150 pieces, about 550 in total. Then singles, CDs, DVDs and books. But I think it's a nice extension of the hobby, nice site. Very addictive .. And I fear not many of my records are there yet .. Many French and new pressings.

nondeju, > 50,000 items already in your collection

Even if I count all the old screws and nails and they are very old, I still don't get to half.

Really, those screws and nails have been there since the mid-70s.

Let's face it, a true collector never throws anything away.

Other than that I can only agree with all the praise

Have a nice day everyone
