Lemme cynically throw this out there: treating cards as an asset is something that the vast majority of us do, and we vintage card collectors are acting like feces flinging chimps over this sale not because these investors are getting into cards but because they are padding their portfolios with stuff that isn't what we own and would like to see be worth a fortune. Cards selling for record prices and making the news is a net positive for all of us collector/investors, even if the buyers aren’t into our specific part of the hobby. My hope is that buyers like this help further the case for treating cards as an asset class worthy of investment and that the effect spreads to vintage cards too.
