But to answer your specific question, maybe at some point, but not now (a) because I am not ready to give up full control over my cards, (b) I dont currently have the time to manage a mutual fund of cards, and (c) I dont believe the "market" is best for valuations (thus the thread) -- I think I would rather be a buyer than a seller right now, although I am not actively buying much either.

I don't have anything like your collection but the fractional share of a card, set or something like that has been intriguing to me as well. Buying a Wagner in a partnership of some semblance has always been the musing. Would be interesting to see as, like you, have also done some recapitalization in the real estate market (smaller scale, I'm sure, and different asset class). Doubtful I ever go that route but always interesting to think through!!
