I agree with the sentiment of collecting for historical and for the shear pleasure. I'm not against making a buck, but maybe the pendulum can swing back to purists and not over priced greed.
The story of where a card has been is as important, if not greater, than its dollar value to me.
Ironically, these third party sellers and graders have marred exactly what they set out to prevent.
