I try to follow this at all times, sometimes the cardboard gets the better of me, my passion, but in the end collectors / people are worth more than any dream card....  RIP to our fellow collectors, especially Jantz  |
That is so true. I've found over the years that card collecting has taken a backseat to the knowledge I've gained though the cards (like history, economics and how the game and hobby have evolved) and through the people I've met.
I think the hobby has a lot to teach us and I love these comments, great perspectives.
