Default Clipping up history - a bit O/T

Posted By: Judge Dred (Fred)

I'll never understand "cutting up" documents, checks and contracts for the sole purpose of making a buck. The sellers of these cards should just offer "redemption" cards. If the winner really wants the piece (lets say a Wagner check or full cut, not something cut down to fit a card) they can spend $10 to have it shipped to them. If they don't want it then it's a free market, they can sell it to someone else that would like it. I realize that this may actually cost the card manufacturers a little more money but wouldn't they rather be known as providers of highly desireable memorabilia rather than buthchers of history?
