"So where to buy your Christmas or holiday collectibles? I would suggest trying your local antique shops. A lot of places still will wait until close to the holiday before they put them out which is not always convenient for a collector. That would be one resource. The internet is a great resource. eBay is a great resource. Just lots and lots of these items on there and all different categories. That's why the resource book would help you identify what's out there and give you a good idea about price range. So resources and online is a really great place to start and eBay. So try your local shows. You might find that it will be better and closer to the season, whatever season your collecting. So if it's Easter, you're going to find more Easter items out there during that time frame. Same thing with Christmas. If you want to go out there and collect make sure you get out there that month before Christmas because they tend to put those things out. I keep my holiday out all year round so people can see and collect. So it is a collectible. People like to collect all year round, not just a Christmas time. So those are a few different places for you to go to start your collecting."
