This industry will benefit from anyone providing innovation, price transparency, trust, and liquidity. The added market participants have squeezed AH commissions and increased the value of scarce, desirable cards.
Both of those are good for the collectors here that have been purchasing and collecting scarce, desirable cards for decades and are sitting on large gains.
Most scarce, desirable assets have been going up a lot in the last 10 years. It makes sense to me that cards would increase as well.
Some people move to Texas or Florida because there is no state income tax. Oregon doesn't collect sales tax on cards. It's rational for Oregon to do that and it's rational for a Vault company to locate there and create jobs.
I think the Vault service is a nice addition.
