Good question...i think in todays market its difficult not to intermingle both, i think its a natural part of the hobby to try to obtain cards under market value or buy a group of cards and sell off the extras to pay for the ones you need. Investment almost happens immediately as the value of the cards keep going up. The grading game has significantly changed the hobby as the price scale for every grade level is available, versus the old days where cards were basically either NM,VG, or Poor and left up to the dealers for their perspective of mint.
