Maps souvenir magnets

Map magnets.. another one of my obsession. Dulu masa memula nak kumpul magnets.. takda tema-tema pun janji melekat kat bod magnet.. kira okey la. Then sikit-sikit be a bit selective, nak maps aje. The sikit up lagi, nak contour map magnets. Latest nak metal contour map magnets pulak. But being in this group of collectors for more than three years, I have my own principal ie. kalau tak berkenan, Ibu takkan proceed with the exchange. Dulu tak berani or pandai nak REJECT (tho' dalam ati memang sakit jiwa raga) tapi sekarang ni berani la sikit nak bersuara. This process of swap, exchange or whatever is a mutual understanding of both parties. Sometimes ada jugak exchange 3 penjuru. Win-win-situation la kan.

Kadang-kadang ada jugak yang pasal exchange magnets ni boleh jadi kes gaduh or perang dingin. Pernah la jugak ka FB collectors dari Europe (especially) dok sindir collectors from Malaysia yang kononnya sedikit gelojoh. Tapi sapa la yang tak geram kalau tengok stok diaorg yang cun-cun tu. Cuma maybe sebab collectors dari Malaysia tu, most of them are NEW.. so jadi bahan cerita diaorg la.

Me, simple.. nak.. kita proceed.. otherwise.. NO PROBLEM. Wat ape nak pening-pening kepala kan kan kan... As per Kak Noriza selalu kata.. NANTI ADA LA JUGAK TU.. pernah at one time Ibu tunggu for almost one year for map of Belgium & Bosnia.. but its all so worth it... 

Another thing about maps ni, indirectly kita akan lebih rajin google for the location, historical value or story, or even the shape of one country. Penah jugak la Ibu terkena dengan this one seller, google map lain bentuk dia jual lain bentuk. But since dah book, so proceed je la..

So sapa kata kumpul map magnets tak ada faedah???
