Comparing cards to stocks is tough. There have been a multitude of stocks that would appear a safer investment but have have gone down substantially. You can lose on anything in life. Would I rather put 200k into liquid financial investments? Yes. That said the buyer might have 200 million already there and wants to handle this card and be able to say he has it. We are actually moving in the direction of cards being used as collateral. It has been discussed on this message board. |

I'm not finding Net54 on any list of major lenders. If Leon is accepting cards as collateral, perhaps he can explain how that is structured.

I am going to give you an analogy that is more appropriate here. My wife is into purses. She has seven or eight Chanel's, a bunch of Gucci's, some Yves Saint Laurent and a few others. Quite a pricey collection of purses. A purse has one function and that is to carry things but the prices of these purses are predicated on scarcity and bragging rights. You would think these would be a enough but she wants a Hermes Birkin bag. These are the most scarce of designer bags and you can't just go into a store and buy one. They have to ask you if you want one and it is hard to have that happen. Which one of these sells for the most? The Birkin naturally because it has the ultimate bragging rights. This is just how the world works. We don't make the rules. Once cards are elevated to elite hobby status symbols they can take on a mind of their own in terms of price. It is really simple. |

Typical female wasting money on nonsense.

They go for much more than this in some cases. These and a Chanel are actually bought for investment purposes in some cases. Just like a hot car you can flip them for more than the price in the store and they do hold great residual value. Edit: check this one out. They go for up to 150k but this is the highest sale I could find on EBAY. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Hermes-Birk...wAAOSwQFJaxrLp Last edited by Dpeck100; 10-18-2019 at 11:03 AM. |

Oh yeah. Doubtful though they are fooling anyone because they are made with very expensive material that you can't simply fake.
Some of the lower priced bags like Gucci it is much easier to fake and unless someone is versed in them they might be fooled. A huge part of the price is brand but not all. That said the only reason there is demand is that other women know what you are carrying. Chicks really check out other chicks gear. It is kind of funny to watch. Her shoe collection is big too and it is hilarious watching other women loose it when they see some of the hard to find Valentino's she has and other brands.
