<p>[QUOTE="green18, post: 2227108, member: 10103"]Chris, the mint(s) has (have) become a business run by politicians whose only desire (it seems) is to increase their bottom line by selling these (NCLT) things but, by doing so, I believe they have attracted more people to the hobby then ever before. I think the serious hobbyist will soon outgrow the 'novelty' items and move on to more traditional avenues regarding collecting at some point in his (or her) collecting career........It's kind of a good thing in my humble opinion. Also too, I'm a 'sucker' for some of these items, and I buy them because I like them. I know I'll probably never make any money selling them down the road. Heck, I'll probably loose money on many of them but they're fun for me to have in the collection. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
