There are definitely good people out there, but a small group are “me first” and could care less about people. Very frustrating.

People in the hobby for the money (and let's be honest, the chicks!) don't have a true love for the history of the game, or real appreciation for the pieces of history they acquire. It's just another way that they can show off.
When card values decrease, they're going to be cranky.
Some are going to find out the hard way that the pot o' gold they saw at the early part of the pandemic may ultimately be a mirage. If profit was their only motivation for getting into the hobby, I have no sympathy for them.
