I have read the following :

"If you follow the story line, don’t assemble collections before they come up in the story. You will miss that bit of never-ending dramedy." and

"If you already have at least one of each item in the Collection, you can combine the Collection before the Combine Quest activates. You will still have to do all the other Quests asking you to find the different items from the Collection, but the combine Quest itself will automatically complete when you reach it."

So, even if I have all the CIs and I am interested to get the provided reward, it is better to avoid combining a collection in advance, before it is asked in a certain quest. It may mess the quests, isn't it?

Combining a collection is not considered as a completed quest for a certain CI. Every CI should be find by playing, except for a random drop or a friend's gift.
