Re: Collectors Keeping Collectors from Collecting

Well, Glenn, that does happen. I guess it is the reality of capitalism. There are some collectors that have a great deal more disposable income than I do and they continually beat me on auctions by grabbing some of the most collectible chips to sell at a higher price later. I guess it's no different than the stock market, buying low, holding on to it for a while and hopefully selling high later. It is frustrating, but I guess if I had the money to do that, I would probably do the same. Our collectibles are no different than any other collectibles, there will always be those who are in it for the investment/ potential profit.
