Thank you Jeff for saying.
Whether it is auction setting or misc. other scenarios (word of mouth, board, shows, etc); I have encountered other "like-minded's" who see things slightly differently from the norm. A scarcity/rarity, of a player with some kind of back-story (star or not) draws my attention before that of just some guy. I find enjoyment in researching a player with a known rarity; if he seems to be just a baseball guy, I tend to move on. My son, who helps me at shows; has the same vision. In fact, he uncovered a coolness on a subject that is an example of purpose for us in collecting. This leads us to more fun; what it is all about; besides realizing $$$ in rarity development (lol).
An awesome thread, gentlemen; thank you.
