I have been told that a major reason that auction houses continue to produce glossy catalogs in this day and age is to satisfy the egos of their major consignors.

Yeah, can see that. Nothing like seeing your item on page 1 or 2. If I consigned a six figure item I guess I'd want the fully monty as well. But even if 10% of their customers opted out that would be worth something.

Once my catalog arrived long after I'd seen everything online, I logged in thinking for sure there would be a way to opt out under settings, but I couldn't find anything - I was thinking about the environment as well - I can't see why it would hurt to leave it up to the individual.

Default Unsalted Nuts

One of the auction lots I find most impressive from a collector standpoint is the Batter-Up near master collection of the various tints. Collecting just the 1-80 non-high number subset regardless of tint is enough of an accomplishment, but to pursue all 800+ of these cards, especially the high number tints, is just plain nuts. Never have seen an accumulation like it.
