Leon, is this the book that explains about how Upper Deck owners sneaked into their plant and printed extra cards to privately sell? That is one eyeopening book, especially for collectors of modern cards.

First of all I have not read the book I quoted. I don't read much but do like looking at the pictures.
Also, I don't necessarily agree with the quote I stated. I found it on the internet and thought it was thought provoking so annied it up. I love the hobby more than most and would love it without the money aspect. But, obviously the money aspect of it makes it more intriguing, at least to me. Don't get me wrong too, I am a capitalist and do believe in capitalism (but that is for some off topic forum we never created). As the poster above mentioned I think we can be both collector and capitalist in the hobby. If I had to choose I would still take the hobby, and all it has going for it, over the money. best regards
