Always been positive for me, but I have experienced a lot of negativity in the hobby. Particularly when it comes to people wanting to be the King of a subject.

As a married guy, who is lucky enough to have a wife who enjoys the hobby as an outsider lookin' in, there is no negative side.
As a single guy before, meeting her, it didn't do much for my success rate pickin' up women. Given the size of the collection back then, it did even less for repeat visits ![]() ![]() |

I love this hobby and an awful lot, and it is my favorite, and it has brought me and my Dad closer together.
However, when I was about 17, I found a nice block of cards from the 50's on Ebay, or so I thought. The seller told me he could give me a slight price break if I paid via check. Being the complete moron kid that I was, I happily agreed. I had been working since I was 16, so I had saved about $2k, maybe a little more actually, and I sent him close to every penny of that. I am sure you all know where I am going with this ... no cards, and because I did not pay directly through Ebay, no restitution. The seller (who was in Canada) disappeared, but actually began selling under a different Ebay name. I told Ebay about him and what happened, but it made no difference, and he continued to sell. I was a stupid teenager, and learned never to trust someone whom you do not know, or have not done business with in the past. Other than this one massively shitty experience ... NO REGRETS!!!!
