Hello fellow collectors. My name is Mark and I've been collecting from 2005 to 2015. Haven't bought anything for the last 5 year due to the high prices. However after having most of my collection in storage for 7 years I decided to build display cabinets and show them. All my 213 models are 1:18 and are mostly made up of the higher end brands including Autoart, Minichamps, BBR, Exoto, Kyosho, CMC and Hotwheels Elite (with about 15 cheaper brand items). I am only interested in the classics, mostly from the 50's to the 90's but have models from 1932 up to 2014. I didn't buy these to resell, but purely to have and enjoy them. I'm loving having them on display in my home office!!
Will post a pic of the whole display somewhere if I can figure it out.

Hey Mark, welcome to DS!
There are some affordable brands, like Solido, Norev, OttOmobile and others. Based on your tastes of the premium quality I can understand not taking steps backwards.
I'd love to see the collection once on display, also consider DS DCOTM feature:

Welcome! Very interested to see what you have, I love classic cars in 1:1 and high end scale models in 1:18.
