Kind of interesting (and humorous to me) how those not into our hobby can view and relate to card collecting and how it may relate to such things in their view. Collectors like many of us are most definitely an extreme minority of the overall population. LOL

Yes my reading and limited understanding is that they sold $4.5 million worth (which sold) which Trump got. Then these speculators were reselling on the secondary market thinking since they were limited and sold out that the demand would be great to drive up the prices and they would score a profit. But many were selling for less then the initial prices and losing money
