Is Influence Hurting or Helping Your Collection?

Every collector is influenced. The question is how do you make sure it helps, not hurts, your collection?
In this flagship episode, I break down the role of influence in our collecting decisions. I share how seeing other collectors’ posts, hearing their stories, or watching a new piece of content can open doors, but also how it can push us toward decisions we regret.
I walk through the seven principles of influence from Dr. Robert Cialdini and explore how each shows up in the hobby. Then I share the personal three-step filter I use to slow down and make sure every move I make is really mine.
This episode is for anyone who’s ever felt the pull to collect something new, wondered if they’re chasing hype, or wanted a framework to make more intentional choices.
You’ll leave with:
- A better understanding of how influence really works in the hobby
- A practical filter to test every potential purchase
- Clarity on the difference between influence and FOMO
We’re not robots—we’re collectors. Influence is real. What matters is how we respond to it.
