On the one hand, good to see super healthy bids so far. Great to see how well cards are doing these days. On the other hand, I am priced out of what I enjoy collecting - bah humbug.
I am a minimum EX5 or better collector and have seen my purchases go down to 2 or 3 cards a year. Just can't afford the decent stuff anymore.
I can't get too excited about the sub-EX grade cards. Maybe I should do some soul searching and realize I need to drop to the grade 1, 2 and 3 level. How many of you are in this boat?

I had a VG EX minimum for the longest time, and while I pretty much still have it, I've certainly ended up making exceptions in some cases because the lower grade was hypertechnical and the card was really hard to find, and in some cases to save some money. Haven't regretted any of those buys.
