Initially, I just posted that the segment was aired.
We are able to distinguish between new cards that are/were mass printed and old ones that we collect. To some extent we're biased to justify and believe in what we collect. That bias aside, I do think that the market for old cards is not in collapse, but that the market for new cards is not what it used to be, for many reasons.
A card's value really doesn't drive my collecting, I find myself agreeing with John up there hoping that prices of what we collect plummet, so we can buy more stuff.
Over the years I've developed an appreciation for CBS's approach and skill with the news. I still have that. I've not felt the same about Mr. Keteyian's reporting, I'm not sure why they got him, nor why they've kept him. You guys are right that if he's relying on Mr. Mint and David Jamieson's book, then he's starting out in left field, with little hope of making it into the infield.
