I think Chris and Kyle summed things up pretty well from both sides.
There's a ton of overpriced stuff, just like everywhere else you go in life. Ive been collecting for 32 years, Id like to think I not a dumbass who overpays so to paint the entire National with one broad stroke seems a little is a little ignorant as I only buy pww1 cards. I found 5 cards that were added to my collection including one that involved a dealer and another collector that worked out well for all of us.
I have also become old enough to realize if my only goal of attending a National is to get cards then I am missing a big opportunity to enjoy time with friends, friends I only see once a year. There is a value to giving titty twisters and stealing someones toothpaste from their room. Cardboard is great, but friends are better.
