I would rather have people making money on one item by selling it over and over again. The history is preserved and taxes are being collected.
Bill Gates owns some of Da Vinci's original notebooks. I have no trouble with that. I know he has the resources to own and protect them and is keeping them away from some idiot who might take the folios apart and sell them page by page or line by line.
The people who buy and destroy artifacts should be arrested but they wont be. The people who buy those destroyed artifacts are worthless wannabes.
