That BL350 is small potatos compared to the Drum. I tried explaining to the wife why i'll be withdrawing possibly $2500 to buy a "baseball card". Her eyes glazed over and her expression turned to disgust. Even though i'll be trying to buy the card strictly because I love this hobby, its easier to buy if I can try to convince her the card will be at least worth 75% of what we pay in 5 years time.

I always buy collectibles with this frame of mind. If I can lose no more than 25% of my original investment a few years down the road, I have no problem paying for the "ownership rights" for at least a few years!
