[QUOTE="19Lyds, post: 1780589, member: 15929"]While all that you state is technically correct, the one factor which is not addressed is the "newbie" part. Littleton and countless others prey upon the less educated collector that wants to get into the hobby and, IMO, when these folks finally wise up (the new collectors that is) then they have the right to whine and inform others of what they've learned. Maybe, just maybe, some lurker will not rush into a Littleton contract. BTW, whatever happened to the "Record Clubs"? Or the CD Clubs or the Book Clubs? These were all exactly the same scenario and lots and lots of folks got burned. Not ripped off nor taken mind you. Just "burned". Does Littleton have a huge overhead? Sure!
