I have both - gold (and silver) and cards. They serve two different purposes. The cards bring me pleasure. The PMs bring me be security.
For that matter, copper is more 'useful' than gold. Does it make it worth more?
I'm not real sure why I'm having this conversation. Something tells me I'm going to regret it.

The point I was saying was that any offer for a card is probably worth more than the paper the card is printed on so I don't disparage card low ball offers....cause its just cardboard.....plus we are talking about everyday cards where a poster was talking about a lowball offer of around $30.00.....I not going to argue the merits of circumstances where cards can be worth more than gold..i just said on the whole..in the world..gold has more useful value than cards...I don't think a ty cobb is worth much in Malaysia in the jungle for example....gold seems to have shown more usefulness in life than baseball cards in terms of trade value and use value...
I think people have tried to conquer people over gold ..but I don't see 1000s of people getting killed over cards...... again, you can always give a circumstance for your side...like cards more meaningful for you etc....I just saying overall...I think we can all agree that gold is more valuable....and I don't think its shocking to say that gold has value in real life use as a poster seems to be shocked by that comment.
