I'm not shooting at anyone here because I think that the BST has been wonderful for the most part. But for the rest? There are about 2 auction houses I personally trust currently (LOTG and REA) and not so much any of the others. Once you get to a certain level of collecting, that makes it pretty hard to go on. Do we go back to shows? I'm good with that but unless you have lots of free time, it certainly would make collecting more difficult.
Good questions. I've developed some damage control measures over the years, but I highly doubt it's been a perfect solution.
