Fanatics will suck the last dollar, and breath, from this hobby - at least for new cards and memorabilia. They will burn bright and hot and will not foster a sustainable hobby.

I read the entire article, though I found the process rather devoid of entertainment value. The author may have intended otherwise; however, the piece seemed to negatively portray collectors of anything other than modern material. If I didn’t know anything about sports cards, I might have gotten the impression that collecting vintage was like visiting flea markets and modern was like going to trendy retail shops.
