It's cumulative. But, what happens to the collector trying to find something fairly rare, only to find that the few examples are tied up in a fractional ownership of "investors". As previously stated, who provides the oversight for these "assets". They note that you can visit your investment, but most won't take the opportunity. You're trusting your money is tied up in what they say it is based on......? Maybe a Moser card? What happens if it goes missing? What's it insured for?

The general theme is that all of these wonderful ideas take the fun out of collecting. It's always about someone's get-rich-quick scheme.
