set of ideas are presented. While card collecting is a hobby
it is also a business, and the number of items that are available,
are in part available because they command such high prices."
Bruce,
I don't want to speak for everyone, but I don't think it's that board members are upset at new ideas, it's more that your demanor, tone, and overall presentation is a turn off. It has that air to it of snobbery to it, which could upset people.
Also, collecting is a business to some, not all. I know several people who just collect to collect. The fact that money is exchanged for our precious pieces of cardboard does not mean that everyone views it as a business. You may, and that's fine, I am not knocking your collecting interests. But you might want to give the whole "we" thing a rest.
