<p>[QUOTE=&quot;krispy, post: 1091851, member: 19065&quot;]Anyone can collect what ever they so desire to collect and elect to pay whatever they deem it worth to obtain those things. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;Collecting in general can be perceived as illogical human behavior.&nbsp; Collectors can be deemed irrational in their decision making. Collectors&nbsp; who pay a premium for any material object can be looked down on it by&nbsp; others for their decisions. It matters not what the thing in question&nbsp; is. The reasons why people collect and pay what they are willing to pay&nbsp; for things can be viewed and debated as senseless by one camp until&nbsp; they&#039;re blue in the face. Such repetitive threads stand as a testament to this.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;That one collector turns their focus on collecting objects which others&nbsp; use to invest in but value no higher than its marketplace value today&nbsp; doesn&#039;t make it wrong for the collector to pay what they see it is worth&nbsp; to them. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;That others calling themselves collectors agree to buy something of the&nbsp; exact same material specifications for a premium but for its finish, <i>a&nbsp; proof version</i>, while simultaneously putting down other collectors who&nbsp; buy another versions for a premium, <i>the</i> <i>bullion version</i>, are simply&nbsp; creating flaccid superficial reasoning to justify their actions above&nbsp; those of others. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;It doesn&#039;t make an <u><i>ounce</i></u> of sense to pay a premium for a proof version&nbsp; of the exact same material specification coins, a bullion ASE and a proof ASE, as they are after all, just bullion.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
