    Think the economy goes into a recession. My buying is down just In case this results in lay-offs down the road at my company. We are certain to have a bad year so cost cuts typically follow. I am at the level in my career where it takes longer to find something if that happens. Want to build up some savings. I never sell cards just add to my collection. The stuff I am working on will still be there for me when I feel more comfortable spending my discretionary income again.

    Similar. no selling here for any reason. Remaining among the True Collectors. B) . things will be there for me on the other side of this hysteria.

    Our country was a manufacturing economy in the 1930s. We are a service economy now. We may need to prepare for the possibility of more than 25% unemployment if the curve of infected cases does not level off and begin to decline soon. That being said, I hope that everyone is nearly finished grocery shopping. I plan to purchase a loaf of bread tomorrow. Stay well, everyone.

    I've gotten more lowball offers recently {last 2 weeks}; I simply counter and they expire. No harm, no foul.

    on a non-hobby note.....Stay Safe and best wishes during these trying times

    I have to much S**t; so if you working on sets or are a player/team collector, send me your want list, with conditions desired. Keep in mind I have a another job so please allow me a few days to respond.
