Al C.risafulliHere's what I don't get.
Why does there need to be so much animosity between high-grade and non high-grade collectors? I'm pretty sure it has nothing to do with envy or anything like that - I'd find it hard to believe that a guy like Ted, who has two complete T206 sets (congrats on the Sovereign set, Ted), is envious of a guy like Jim. And vice-versa.
What difference does it make? Do guys who collect Diamond Stars dislike the guys who collect Goudeys? Do the guys who collect E-cards dislike the guys who collect T-cards?
It just seems silly to me. Both types of collectors have lots of knowledge they can offer.
For the record, I collect both, and I think they're both beautiful.
