leonI do think the modern card market has some affect on our market. My guess is that many youngsters that start out in the newer cards eventually move to vintage (like most of us). It's a fairly natural progression. I would venture to say there is no one on this board more in tune with the new market than my good friend, Rich Klein. He and I talk frequently about the new card market over lunch. It seems as though "2" is a very good number for the number of companies producing cards. They each have something like 24 issues (could be 12, I forget) so there is a monthly new supply for the current card market. If there is only 1 new card company it could be a bad thing....I hope that doesn't happen and I agree the SEC could have something to say about it too....regards
