I wonder if the OP is worried about physical theft though?

Interesting. Didn’t even occur to me!! I don’t have my name on my account and certainly not my address, although both can be easily acquired. Plus, everything is insured. That said, I was never worried about physical theft.

If someone comes in, I will aim for the head. Plus my safe is boobie trapped so that if someone tries to break in it immediately kills their mom and little sister

Default Sharing collection via website
I built a site using Wordpress (free option), and have been slowly added my collection along with photos of the players and stats. It's been a fun project.

My collection is raw and well loved, so I'm not worry about theft.

Ha, I like it! Any thief at my place would be locked to death by a beagle and then trip over my clothes before stumbling on a disappointing collection.

I would share more, but Judge Landis always gives me his look.

Brian (photo not mine...because of course if it were HE wouldn't want me to share it)

I think most people that own the really expensive cards have them in safety deposit boxes at the bank.

I know of a few vintage baseball autograph collectors/dealers that are
unwilling to share images of difficult/scarce signatures they possess.

That does makes it more challenging for collectors to build their own
reference resource of signature exemplars. But also reflects the continuing
issue of bad autographs in the hobby.

You may just be incentivizing break-ins for a portion of the population!

I have used ImageEvent to share my collection online for years, and I've never had a problem.
I don't post my name and address, so I have little to fear.
If someone were to break into my house looking for my collection, they would be out of luck because it's stored in my bank safe deposit box.
