I noticed while scrolling through the TBT Marketplace forum that there were people asking about dates on collectibles before trades or were trading identical collectibles just for different dates.

I'm curious about what those dates signify and how do they come about? Why are people interested in getting different dates? :unsure:
 
The collectibles in your sidebar are ordered by date, so people look for certain dates so that the collectibles will line up the way they want.

That's interesting! So you cannot pick the order of the collectibles and it follows the date it was acquired? Wouldn't it be difficult to arrange your sidebar when you get more collectibles? Is that why people do trades to ever improve their ordering of the collectibles sidebar? :unsure:

Yep, exactly! It is very difficult, haha, and that’s why people date trade. I believe there’s been talk from the mods about adding the ability to edit the order, but it’s not a thing right now and likely won’t be for the foreseeable future.

Thank you for the insight and taking the time to reply to this thread. Glad that I did not dive into forum collectibles right away! I have a slight OCD with tidiness of stuff and prefer minimalistic looks, feel like forum collectibles might give me a headache or two 😅 For now I will just enjoy other people's arrangments (even yours is arranged decently)! :)

Of course, it’s no trouble. They definitely can be a headache, right now I’m working on getting ones I like and will worry about arranging much later, haha. You can also make collectibles inactive/hidden, in the event that you want to start collecting but don’t want to display them until you have a lineup you like. :)

Thank you again for the additional advice and insight! Happy hunting for your collectibles :LOL:

are they organized from newest to oldest or from oldest to newest?

Newest ones are on the top left, oldest are on the bottom right. The first row is the five newest, the second row is the five oldest. (For example, in my current line-up, the New Horizon's token is the newest, and the Dec. 2013 white feather is the oldest.)

thats good to know for whenever i get around to buying stuff from the shop. so far i haven't really gotten the chance to buy much of anything since everything is always out of stock and i never know when it restocks.
