Gilbert MainesI believe that he accomplished what he set out to do. And with the little controversy, we helped him achieve his objective.
I do not take this field of baseball card collecting as serious as some of you, but then for me it is collecting, not a business, nor an investment.
I fully realize that $10,000 if far less of an expenditure to many than it is to me. The thought that I could consider exchanging that level of purchasing power for a baseball card is totally alien to me. However, I can (barely) visualize having sufficient funds and no pressing needs that such a purchase could be feasible. I wonder how my view of the field of baseball cards would change if my available funds for card buying were an order of magnitude greater.
Thinking about it - I am quite happy with my collecting focus. I would probably seek cards in better condition, where now I pass on the higher priced items, unless I can't. Id also probably get cards faster.
Well thanks for listening to more rambling.
