ANA, FUN, COLLECTORAMA and several more... Right smack in the middle of the midway in clear sight of everyone.

Some slabbers have also approached a few of us with lofty monthly guarantees in the past.

With all due respect... seriously; you're spinning your wheels. 😛

The hobby is healthy; very healthy... and most collectors are very content with the way things are going for them... and, the problem seems to be with some is not realizing that a collector does not need a club/society to do what they enjoy doing... nor is any club needed to hold any hobby together. The Internet is the World's largest club for casual collectors and investment collectors alike... and the CCGTCC will do just fine.
