Internet has killed many magazines and especially newspaper sales IMO

same with shows, eBay has killed shows and card shops too. Why sell to a 50 miles radius when you can sell to the world.

Its a new world now! You can live offgrid on a volcano on a 14 mile muddy road without a mailbox (or address), 2000 miles from the nearest show and still collect/talk cards every day with people all over the world .

PS
I loved those old SCD double issues with extra auctions supplements (remember Teletrade). It was so big.... They had to make 2 separate issues wrapped in plastic back then. And werent they weekly back then too??
I used to take out tiny ads in the back and that was the only way I sold stuff back then. Wow I feel old
