Selling 80% of your collection for ‘52 Mantle - would you?

[Vintage Vern]

Well, I'm a single player collector and I'm glad he's not a HOFer or I would be a zero card collector. I can without a doubt tell you if I ever purchased a high dollar card anyone else that held that card would be in trouble. You would see the market tank like no other time period in history, that's just how "luck" in my world, works. At some point there will come an end, there always is and I'd hit the market at that exact point. Every hobby I've been a part of hits that point and it usually happens when deep pockets take over the hobby. The normal Joe gets left out, and fewer people that loved something, just can't justify or afford it any longer. The $ ruins everything for most of us. Can you imagine what any of these players would think of the $ people pay for an old piece of cardboard? Boggles the mind.
