How many albums collectors/you buy in a year? (awnsers appreciated, a fight with my mom)

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?

my latest neokyo haul :p

A lot of girl groups mainly 2nd gen and nugu groups ! very happy with my finds this time!

The jewel cases (rainbow, cocosori, black pearl, jewelry) were all 2 bucks each or less, and one of the cocosori ones is signed inside even though it wasnt on the listing.
The T-ara promo photobook (was raffled off) was about 45 (also signed and with the winner certificate).
Everything else was between 3-10 each!
So happy i could find the Tahiti promo!! also glad i finally got swincle’s album, i was waiting to find a copy for a cheaper price and this one was just 5 bucks :p (same thing with be ambitious, all the other copies i saw were at least 35, this one was just 8).

thats all then i just wanted to share !

bunjang help !😖

hi there !! i’m looking for some advice on purchasing from bunjang. me and a friend are wanting to buy a 54 photocard set from there, and are just wondering how we should go about shipping.

there’s buying directly from the global site, which we were wondering if anyone who has made a similar order could give an estimate on how much the shipping would be, and if it’d be cheaper to ship to canada or the usa since she lives in canada.
we were also thinking about finding a proxy who lives in korea / has a kaddy who could buy from the regular bunjang site and then just ship it to us.
between those two options, what do you think would be best ?🥲
any advice is welcome, ty for reading !!

How do you display very thin, magazine-like albums?

My ult group (Cravity) has some very thin and tall albums that are almost like magazines. I heavily prefer box albums as they're easier to display but I also want to collect these thin ones. However, I have no idea how I should display them. Any ideas?

Is this signed IOI miss me? album real?

Hi! I bought this signed album a few weeks ago in a mandarake branch in Japan for around 20 USD, it does not have the promo sticker behind so I am not sure if it is real, any help would be appreciated thank you!

Sleeve Deco

I never find cute enough outer sleeves to use on my Johnny collection, so I just source them from different sites and deco my own. Only when I’m extremely bored though because I find it to be tedious 🤣

Hi! I'm from Mexico and I need some advice. I bought a photocard set for $89 USD, and the seller asked me what value they should declare on the package. Should I declare the full $89, or is it common to declare a lower value? I'm worried about getting charged import taxes, but I'm also worried tha

I am trying to preorder We Made Gimme Dat Love version (I am in the US) and had this pop up

It has only shown up on kpopalbums.com and no other sites, but it has also been the most recommended website so I was hoping to use them.

Where has other US Nevies been preordering their albums?

Is it because of the perfume

Will my Delivered Korea purchase be secured over the weekend?

I might have made a mistake. I'm preordering albums and the preorder period ends on Sunday night. I ordered it like an hour ago, so outside of business hours on Saturday in KST. Will my order be secured? I marked it as priority if that makes a difference. Thanks. 🥲

Does this seem like a good binder?

I really want to get one of their binder so my collection can be top tier. But they are so expensive, this was the best I could find, and I specifically like my photocards in this type of style. But I do mainly want to know if it would be safe for my photocards. Is it good, and would you recommend?
