What’s the best way to start a collection?

Collections often start by chance. You receive an object you like or inherit a collection from a parent or grandparent. It catches your interest and now you're suffering from a new disease: collecting! From that time on, many people start to acquire many other similar objects at a low price. First they ask friends and acquaintances, then rummage through flea markets and, why not, start looking for missing items on a site like Delcampe.
