Default THE BIG BUYERS IN OUR HOBBY

Posted By: Julie

In the previous thread on this topic, sort of, "How much money is there out there," several people said there were people who actually used cards as a portfolio, having replaced their stocks and bonds with them. And to whom a card meant nothing more than whatever money it would bring in.

I think to say these people do not exist is foolishness.

Of course there are lucky and industrious collectors who have a lot of dough. But there are also investors, pure and simple, who have a lot of dough.

I did not have enough money--I thought!--to bid in the REA. However, there were several lots which I thought went quite reasonably--the Dukes cabinets, for instance. The rare Boston Kelly portrait, for instance. If you want a T210 Jackson, you're going to find yourself in mighty good company! Increasingly so.
