It is definitely a paradox being a "collector" nowadays. This has been discussed numerous times on the board. I believe that I collect for the right reasons but also am aware of the value of my collection...hence the safety deposit box. Basically, I simply cannot keep my T and E cards with my cap-gun, marbles, and toy soldiers anymore. My collection is scanned so I can enjoy it to some degree at all times even if the actual cards are not always in my possession.
