It�s sad to think about, but I could go back to my hometown and the surrounding communities now and point out buildings, �this used to be a card shop, that store in the mall used to be a card shop�� All of course gone now.

The good thing is in my current city there are more card / hobby shops now than there were when I first moved here almost 25 years ago now. It always seemed to me that the hobby crashed pretty hard in the late 1990�s. Of course I had moved on to college, and wasn�t really paying attention. The internet and eBay had changed things dramatically by the time I got back involved, but even now it�s nice to have the option to go to shops and shows when you feel the need.
