To each their own. I know plenty of people that think it's asinine that I spend a $ on the signature of another human being.

Yup, my wife included. Whenever I pick something up, she exclaims "is that something from another dead person"

Because I am a error/variation collector that even collects print errors for a couple cards. My wife always asks "is that another one of those same exact cards, how many do you need?". I have learned to just say yes instead of showing her the minor print defect.

I do understand modern collecting but after getting caught holding the hot potato a few times I gave it up years ago.

I saw this on a post here a couple of years ago, and thought it was brilliant. So I lay no claim to the clever response, I'm simply stealing it...

Ask her how many pairs of brown shoes does she need.

I would Bob but I am not that brave or stupid, you can take your choice.

With the myriad forgers scumming up the hobby, "dead" may be in the eye of the beholder.
