Default Is Memorabilia on the decline?

Posted By: Mike

I don't like books or price guides for memorabilia. First, there are too many variables. Too much out there, no price guide could possibly hold even half of the things, and odd ball items out there. I collect things that appeal to me. I bid what I think they are worth, what I can afford, and how badly I need or want them. Do they fit my collecting area ? Sometimes I wish cards would go back to this also. It bothers me at shows, when the first thing a dealer does is dive for the price guide. I have a room of pre war memorabila, and I don't need a price guide. I pay or bid per how much I want it. Period. And I have never been disappointed.
