Card collecting is a fairly large space these days. There's plenty of room for everyone. Relax and enjoy the portion of the hobby that resonates with you.
Happy collecting.

Opposite, Eric.
It's the caterwauling over grading flaws and costs when the obvious choice is that you don't need to participate to enjoy the hobby that is my point.
What is the value over complaining and disparaging grading and graders?
To return the hobby to something it may have been many years ago?
Long time hobby collectors can rubber band, 9 holder sheet, loose in a shoebox, slab, put under glass, or any other that they choose.
I celebrate it all and don't rubbish their choice.
I'm 52, not exactly little chick, been in the game in the States 20 years and 35 overall.
Perhaps you miss the constant and vacuous threads/posts on here about the disaster that some paint grading. I should probably try and do better to do the same, it's just so damned hard and repetitive and often completely baseless.
