In my opinion, the shape and size of these disc “cards” is what holds them back in popularity and price and I think that will always be the case. Similar to diecut cards and supplements, the fact that they are not “cards” in the traditional sense, will forever hold them back; note Post cards, which by their own name are “cards” and cabinets, which have a separate and established following/cache and are more widely accepted, do not, in my opinion, suffer so much from the same shape affliction, but are nominally penalized as well.

I own one round card. I don’t like it. I bought it bc it’s a very rare Wagner. I did make a run at the round Thorpe in ML a few months ago, bc I collect Thorpe and it’s super rare. Maybe I would like to own a Joe Jax. But aside from that, I have no real interest in round “cards”, even Wagner, Cobb, etc., and I suspect that is the hobby feeling in general. It may change, and I hope it does, but I am not betting on it
