Well, since you asked I can give one good reason for not disclosing your name on a forum like this: continuously posting expensive baseball cards from one's collection could potentially open oneself up for future theft or attempted burglary, even if you do not keep your cards in the home.
I believe it was Lionel Carter who once said once your collection gets large and has some value, it becomes difficult to share it with others because you are not sure who to trust.
