I was enjoying the hobby long before he "put it on the map" and turned it into an industry.

Hence why I wrote up to peoples opinions.
I'm sure you enjoyed it before, but 90% of cards would probably have been through out if it wasnt for his loud mouth, gruff, and often irritating attitude. IMMEDIATELY after his find, prices starting going nuts, and the glut of the late 80s and 90s crapola started. Get rich quick investors, speculators, and the kids looking to retire in 20 years ( at 30 years old) all jumped aboard the train. People started digging through their attic, asking around, heading to yard sales looking for the next "Find" and have the "guy with the money fan" show up for their pay day. Was it a perfect storm, or something destined to happen? Nobody knows. This guy, Mr Mint (Mr vg-ex to many of us) brought it mainstream
