<p>[QUOTE="medoraman, post: 1372210, member: 26302"]I used to collect too, but older than that. What ruined baseball cards was the start of too many of them ONLY for collectors. The older ones were for kids, which is why few survived. When they started selling bricks of the in the early 80's, it was the beginning of the end. I stopped collecting then, knowing it would never really be worth anything when the Dad's starting buying all of the stuff and keeping it perfect. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie3" alt=":(" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>I see the same with the US mint that people are complaining about the RCM. Look at the mintages nowadays, just serious collector fatigue. However, I would say pay attention at these times because just like in 1936, fatigue will lead to some rarities being sold, coins you will WISH you had bought at issue price in the future.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
