I agree that most people here collect low grade--I am talking about the hobby in general.
I think you are missing the majority of the hobby dollar wise.
Nobody said there was not a large group of passionate collectors who collect lower grade stuff-my point was they were becoming less important to the hobby in general, that psa 8 and better makes up over half of the dollar market and it is likely to grow in the future and that the high grade collector was becoming the "backbone of the hobby".
Brian,
I have a passion--I want to collect over 150 vintage and semi- vintage sets in psa 8 or better. I love every card I have--know a lot about most of my cards and the players. I try to add value here when I can.
Jim
