And I have never bid in a Heritage auction either and apparently will never be able to now.

The 700 million is the gross sales for the whole company. My guess is their take would be 25%-30% of that. Heritage is the very least of our problems in the hobby. I am not saying not to "out" issues with ANY situation. I am in agreement, though the constant rhetoric towards them gets old. How about going after some of the bad guys? If you are an autograph collector and want new people coming into the hobby then this side of the board is failing miserably. I can almost assure everyone that anyone reading all of these comments about autographs are LESS likely than more likely to start collecting them. So for that, we all thank the folks who constantly point all the bad stuff because you are saving us from the inevitable headaches. At least on the card side there is a lot of good stuff too.
