I sold off my collection years back and don't collect anymore (maybe in the future), but get enjoyment reading the board and reading about the stuff. Definitely can live without all the Mastro-esque drama, though. That gets old fast, especially when you realize we're dealing with kid's collectibles. The hobby as a hobby good, the hobby as a industry bad. I figured if I started collecting again it would be in an interesting antique area where items have almost no value and look quaint on my mantle, so the financial part of it isn't involved-- and of course, nothing that is professionally graded.
Though I'm an art historian by trade and am teaching a photo history course, so am still actively involved in "the stuff." I just don't buy for myself as a collector. Last edited by drcy; 02-19-2016 at 12:06 PM.
