The book will fade away and forgotten by everyone on this board and dismissed by anyone in the hobby because collectors like cards and the action that comes with acquiring them. It's really that simple. Most collectors will buy cards from ex-cons, strangers, card doctors (sometimes cards that they know have been altered but reside in holders), because it's all about the cards and the next fix. Many times we won’t ask or even care all that much about the providence. I personally don’t care who owned it before me.
Everyone on the board loves a new (vintage) card when it arrives in the mail or the excitement when we win an auction. It may even be a sickness, but for sure it’s an obsession that I have no interest in conquering. For me, old cardboard is like crack, and I'm duo for a fix!
