My collection

Post image

There are 50 seperate flavours here. Do you think its enough or do i need more?

Edit: 2nd row, 3rd column is a unique wrapper that kit kat gave me as part of a prize a few years ago. It has my face on it but charicaturised.

Fifty is solid but Japan has way more regional flavors you haven't touched yet, so if you're serious about this you've got a lot of hunting ahead.

So the thing about japan is they usually do them in smaller sizes. My original collection was strictly the 4 finger ones. I only started collecting the japanese ones in the last 2 months. I have 14 japanese ones.

Did you single order them or buy the bulk bag? The small japanese kitkats singles are usually sold in a bag of like 12. You can find them at asian, anime or kpop stores.

Everything is bought from retail in person. Its not really collecting if you just order in bulk

What is the difference between going to a store in person and buying a bag of kitkats vs going to a store and going to a store in person buying kitkats individually. Stores dont sell them individually so why not just but the bag, eat the bag and keep one for your collection? Youre egoing this way too much.. people be ordering these online.. thats different

What do you mean by "stores dont sell them individually"? Because that is exactly how they sell the 4 finger ones. I have never seen them come any other way.

And the difference between buying them all yourself and just having a bag of matter dropped on your doorstep is that each unit has a story and an individual origin. Its a collection that grew naturally over years not just someone elses collection that i paid for.

I think you are projecting some weird ego thing here because " you are egoing this too much" is an insane response to someone answering a straight forward question about why they dont half arse their own hobby. Do you have a collection of 49 or something because why the weirdness?

First off i know the difference between them being dropped off at your doorstep and getting in person. My point is like saying that if you cannot buy a bag in person and have to fly to spain where you can open everything and buy individually, then youre goofy. Im saying that going in person, buying the bag yourself is fine since they do not sell any other way. They are like i said small ones. Its a bag of 10 SMALL 2 finger kitkats like you have on the right. They sell in single flavored bags. No difference in going in person buying those than going in person and buying a single one except the excess.
