Default Who Are The Hobby's Most Influential New Collectors

Posted By: JimCrandell

Good post Preece 1.

It is not necessarily a given that the high end collectors will purchase the top 10-20 rarities.

There is a marked preference among all the "influential buyers" I know well to build high grade sets--they will upgrade 8s with 9s and 9s with 10s and compete vigorously for low pop commons. We are talking T-cards, Goudeys, Cracker Jacks, Play Balls, American Caramels not 67 Topps.

And I agree with you on Bruce--who cares about his tone--its a pre-war board and in my opinion his posts are consistently the best there are.

Jim
