Hobby
If it is really just a hobby for someone, they do not care what a 3d party thinks about the cards they collect. When it comes to post war Topps or Fleer, I am confident I know more about those cards than anyone at a grading company. I do not need someone's seal of approval on what I collect
If cards were an investment for me, or an important part of my estate planning, that would be a different situation completely.
The only time I get down is when reading threads obsessing over what the grading companies are doing....only kidding, I just move on to something else more interesting to me.
I do think the post war regulars here are a great group and very much enjoy the cards that are posted and the ongoing exchange of information
