James, Pete, good points. I'm more in Pete's position; been a collector since I was kid with breaks but continuously active since 1988. Over time I've gone out and amassed cards I wanted when I could and I've never sold off, so I have a lot of cards that are worth a lot more than what I paid for them. That said, I know if I sell off a Ruth I am not going to get another one to replace it unless the market craters, and I know I am not going to get a new Ruth unless I get rich or it slips through the cracks somehow. So there's a bit of frustration too. Best I can hope for now is to expand with trades. Which is a lot of fun too.
