Jason La few reasons:
1) My Mom told me to
2) I love the history of the game, and this increases the more I learn
3) I enjoy the artistry of the cards
4) I have always harbored an insane interest and desire to play the game itself. And since I was only marginally decent at the most basic level, I also harbor a jealous fascination of those who can play the game, and certainly of those who play at a high level. Collecting makes me feel childlishly closer to them and the game.
5) I enjoy the idea that I might someday look back and discover that I have built an important collection. Call it pride and competitive interest. this is where the PSA Registry feasts on my misfortune.
