If the guy with 200 Jackie Leaf cards bought them all 3+ years ago, he is likely loving life seeing that it continues to be a card on the move.

I agree...if he had these pre-pandemic he made some great investments, even with things cooling off a bit. I'd be stoked to have all those! That picture is insane, and a lot of dollars...

+1 Agree
as a collector WOW
For any person that is an investor WOW
Just the visual of it and many have real nice eye appeal

Exactly! It is no different than putting away a run of different cards at a specific time and price point.

Great investment no doubt, do you think that was his aim? Not sure any of us anticipated the Covid run up but certainly was kind to many cardholders.

The nice thing about this hobby is there are so many ways to collect to scratch ones particular itch.

As a collector, not an investor/flipper I would find hoarding 200 examples of any card boring but if that's your thing more power to you.

I doubt he was counting on the Covid bump. But likely a smart buy.

Nobody could imagine the Covid run up, in your opinion is he an investor or a collector?

If you follow Jason on IG you'll see that he isn't just hoarding the Leaf Jackie. He seems to have that many or more copies of lots of major cards. He's been buying them up for years.

Another one to talk about is the guy who has 49 of the 1948 Swell Sport Thrills Robinson. That's a pretty ridiculous amount for that card.

So are these guys investors, collectors, or horders?
