Abstract

The reasons for writing this paper is the undefined role of collecting in the society. In fact, most collectors have this work done as a hobby. However, in the last
couple of decades, due to economic reasons, some collectors have turned the hobby into their "profession", which includes the purchase of antique and rare items, their
temporary storage, setting up a price, putting the items on the market and finally, sale of the items. Despite the punitive provisions, part of the collectors sell – alienate the cultural heritage which is a priceless national treasure. However, our efforts are to legitimize and to unify the collecting as a profession, as a legal activity and as a tourism offer.
