collector; completist (стремящийся собрать полное собрание каких-либо предметов, напр., сочинений какого-либо автора) A person who obsessively gathers the complete collection of a particular set of items such as a musician's recordings or an author's books). There are several reasons why Russians buy antiques, and only a minority of collectors are hard-core completists – someone who attempts, sometimes obsessively, to collect an example of every item of a particular artist, manufacturer or type – or are ready to give huge sums for a piece of art, said Tairov, who is also an ICAAD member.
