Hello, Im a new kpop stan and have been since april of 2026. I have wanted to start collecting kpop albums for a while now (I only have SIS by katseye) since I have found groups I like and stan and singles/albums I would like to have.

Me and my parents were outside and talked about random stuff when kpop came to my mind. I have talked about buying an album online since I havent found ones I wanted in record stores, I said that I'd limit my album buying to one in a month. I got a bit yelled at and my mom said its way too much. My dad added that 2 in a year is already good. (For context I have been in summer jobs and I'd use my own money for those.)

Also I didin't have time to explain that buying in bulk or one in two/three months could be good for me and that I don't have that many albums i'd like to buy. What should I say to make them feel better about me starting to collect?

I know theres stuff like "weverse album version" or "pre-order benefit" but what does a, b or c versions mean?

I can see what I own, WTB, WTS, WTT and bought but where in my profile I can see my OTW's?

I have been scrolling on card sellers and I have seen many of them pricing cards with number combinations like 1.0 or 0.5 for example. How many wongs they are?

I want to buy the website exclusive pre orders, but how can I when i'm from Europe? Any proxy that would work?

Hi, I'm an European kpop fan and I noticed that I cant buy from merchari since its usa only. Are there any nice proxys for merchari and/or for other us only websites?

Hi, im a starting kpop fan and I have been thinking of starting a photocard collection! I wanted to ask if korea has a website like merchari japan or if there is a specific international website/app for secondhand kpop fan stuff!

I have a huge lot of keychains and most of the bags I have seen only have like max of 2 key holes in the insert. Do you know ajan that would have many places for keychains? Expecially behind the plastic/on the insert?
