If it is true that the whales who were in the hobby for their investment portfolios or strictly investment purposes are truly leaving, I say "hurray!" Maybe the value of my collection decreases monetarily somewhat becaue of this and the economy's woes, but I remember leon a few years ago telling a newbie in a post that he needed to collect cards with the understanding that if someday the cards would all be without value, you would still have the joy of collecting and all those great cards you liked. Think it was leon and sorry for paraphrasing you leon.
