Default Experiment is Over - Cardtarget closing Partial Share Program

Posted By: B O'Brien

I am one of the folks that learned a lot about the high end vintage cards from Cardtarget, and also got pulled me back to the vintage side of the game. I have owned some nice stuff over the years, but was never able to hold on to it for more than a couple weeks because of limited funds and the need for a return (to keep the wife from getting fired up). Cardtarget was giving some of us the chance to stockpile a percentage of ownership, through share selling and buying, of some really nice stuff over periods of time, with the hopes of pulling enough shares together to remove the card from Cardtarget's collection and into our own, in a slow and cost effective way. Anyway, this was a very interesting concept, that had me buying and selling many times more stuff than I have over the past many years, to move more money to the market. Also, as an investor note, the Cardtarget was out performing my stocks for the last couple months, so I am very happy! It's a shame that the good things the market was doing are just now coming to light, Mike and team may have been able to keep it afloat, with a little more interest.
