Default Lurker Thread

I get the impression the Pareto Principle also known as the 80/20 rule applies here quite often. I'm not sure what the member count is but I'm guessing there are some members who just lurk because they don't think their collecting story is important. You couldn't be more wrong.

There's cats here that could literally buy whatever they want, and do, it's fun to see. But the true mission statement of this sub is "all collectors are welcome, tell your story". You don't have to be rich, you don't have to be the big dog in the room. What is required is you have to be excited about what you are collecting and share it with the members here.

My good friend Andy Huntoon is a perfect example, he is a pure collector who just wants to help other collectors fulfill their goals. Thank you Andy. I might be able to afford a 14 CJ Cobb but he's a much better collector than me in my humble opinion.

It's not about the money, it never had been on this sub.

So, Lurkers, tell us your story, introduce yourselves and tell us what's important to you and your collection. If you're excited about pulling a $50 card I want to hear about it. Your opinion counts just like anybody else here.
