The Thrill of the... Hoard?
 
Lately I’ve been struggling to sell cards I didn’t ever think I’d be attached to — even if it means not having sufficient funds to go for something I really want. The thrill of the hunt used to inspire me to sell just about anything in my collection to make a run at something. Today... not so much. Maybe it’s because of the pain I still feel for letting some cards go that I can’t get back. But I can’t seem to put my finger on it.

Anyone else have trouble saying goodbye to cards, even on the periphery of my collection. I feel like those old timers on American Pickers who can’t part with even just one of their 17 rusty old bicycles...

Hoarding has become quite popular...especially with certain T206 poses these days!

I think it has to do with FOMO!

Better to be FOMO than IDMO ( I Did Miss Out ) !

And certainly better than being a MOFO.
