+1. The continuing insinuation that cards are intrinsically valuable anymore only in proportion to their dollar value just makes this a hobby that continues to climb out of reach for the average Joe.

I will say that since getting back into cards about 7 years ago, the insane prices on some of the things that were on my initial wantlist has been one of the largest single turnoffs for me. I will look at something and think yeah, I could make that happen if I wanted to. But do I really want to? They want how much for that card?
