I hope that I did an acceptable job of being a real and positive force for our hobby as that was really my goal. I just wanted to shed some positive light on why I do it. I am also lucky my wife supports my craziness also. I know there will always be some guys that are negative about card collecting, but some of my best buddies are my card nerd friends (you know who you are). Thanks for reading!

I totally get it. It’s like you want everyone to see the greatness of the hobby but at the same time the value of the cards might draw the wrong attention. I remember when Allen Iverson had those giant diamonds in his ears and someone ask what they were worth. He got upset but at the same time it doesn’t take a genius to know that they cost more then what most people make in a year.
And peter it does seem that Brent says a lot about what happened a few years back.
