Most likely a super rich person who isn't feeling any pain at all, but who knows.

Good take... I 'll never understand the anger toward collectors who approach the hobby ethically but different from vintage collectors. Odd to see anyone "enjoy" watching flippers lose money, or new hobbyists get discouraged because of a big decline in value of the ne, shiny stuff.
I'll bet most us started with our own "new, shiny stuff" when we first started collecting - eventually, we discovered how cool and interesting vintage can be.
Maybe we can ease up a little...
