The Eraserheads Box Set - this is a no-brainer. I literally like ALL of their songs. Can't really say I'm that huge of a fan, but I am a fan, so I have to have this one.
Chance to get: 50-50. Someone at OLX is selling one of these for 5,000 Php. I don't have that much cash on me right now, so I'll just have to hope that it doesn't get sold before I get enough cash.
All Pugad Baboy collections - from the first one to the very latest: This was a significant part of my childhood all the way to my young adulthood. If you liked Pugad Baboy enough to own even one of these, I automatically consider you as my friend.
Chance to get: Unsure, but definitely possible. I'll ask Pol Medina Jr. himself if he's still selling them by set.
Collier's Junior Classics 1960's printing - The main reason why I'm an aspiring wordsmith today.
Chance to get: Possible, but not from within the country. Got a bunch of sellers from overseas selling in good condition. Will also cost me a pile of coin to buy.
Time-Life Mysteries of the Unknown - 1980's hard-bound printing. Same as above, except that aside from writing, this series opened my eyes to the world of the paranormal.
Chance to get: Same circumstances as above, will have to be sourced overseas.
All FHM Philippines back issues - The premiere men's magazine in the land. Owned a ton of these myself back in the day, but never got to collecting them in order. Still hit myself in the head over selling some to a friend.
Chance to get: I don't think this one's even possible now, but I'll try to at least collect a year's worth of issues.
The Lord of the Rings + The Hobbit + The Silmarillion - same printing, doesn't matter which one, as long as they're a set. Much better if it's a box set, although I haven't seen these specific books in one.
Chance to get: Almost all Fully-Booked branches carry this, so very possible.
Harry Potter 1-7 - the box set, naturally.
Chance to get: Same as above, pretty common.
A Song of Fire and Ice - although this one's not really worth collecting at the moment since it's still unfinished.
Chance to get: As I'll be getting this by the time the series ends, the market should have been flooded with this by then, so it should be a piece of cake.
Other stuff that I can't name on top of my head - will add them to this list as soon as I can recall.
And then finally, A huge-ass bookshelf to store them all in one place.
