I think we need to make a distinction between what we'd want as collectors and what's feasible given the laws of supply and demand. As a collector, would I want more outlets from which to buy? Sure, why not!

But if, for sake of argument, the number of AHs doubled, would the supply of quality cards to sell double? Unlikely.

So, you'd have a dilution of the quality cards available to each house, and some would simply not get enough good material to pay the bills.

As consumers/consignors, competition is great. But competition creates winners and losers, and the losers don't tend to stay in business long.
