I guess I'm lucky as this doesn't affect me at all.
I never understood why someone would pay top money for a pristine card, but would also pay top money for a card with writing on it because it was "autographed".
Either we as collectors think pristine cards have value or we as collectors think cards with writing (call them "autographs" instead of graffiti if you prefer) have value. But to my mind ... you CAN'T have both be valuable. They are contradictions of each other!!!
Actually in truth, I never understood why you would pay a premium for either a pristine or autographed card.
So, as a result - I never buy either. And I've never made any money off of my hobby - but I've also never lost any!
I can live with that.
Cheers,
Patrick
