Some people's collections are pretty focused and they spend a lot of time finding just what they want. Others have collecting habits that are a little more random or all-encompassing, and are apt to chase down rabbit holes from time to time.
One way to measure this is to take the total value of your collection and divide it by your most expensive card. Let's call this your Scatter Factor, because the higher the number, the more "unconcentrated" or scattered your collecting habits are. For example if your collection is worth $10,000 and your most expensive card is $2000, then your Scatter Factor is 5, meaning you have a pretty focused collection. My Scatter Factor is 30, which I am thinking is a little on the high side, but I am interested to see how that compares to others. Last edited by Gorditadogg; 11-04-2021 at 04:42 PM. |
