I've been looking to complete some partial sets and love to collect dice. I have way too many dice -- i tend to have a set for each character I've played. Anyone also collect, or have old random bits and want to trade?

Thanks!

I used to do that 20 years ago, I had spheric dice, mini dice, all kinds of colors and materials.
But since I had so many of them I was always the one providing dice to everyone during the sessions and eventually, the dice would disappear from my box one by one after each session so I stopped buying them lol.

I've gone out of my way to collect unusual types of dice before, like a die within a die, although I haven't ever considered trading dice due to usually having only one of each rarer die type. My favorite of my unusual dice is a d20 within a d20, which is perfect for the advantage / disadvantage mechanic of 5e, but the outer die is split in two despite an attempt to glue it back together.

I've seen a few if these but only d10s (good for percents) and d6s! I always wondered if they were fair.

I do this too but I like providing them. On Sunday I spotted a player with a single dice they only made in like 2010. They said it was their favorite die and I happened to have a cube of them so i grabbed the whole set to give to them :). I have a ton of sets and now I know they will be loved.

This is the main set I really want to finish, I've only been able to hunt down a few pieces.
