As someone who's dabbled heavily in sports cards as an "investment", there's definitely a difference between artificial scarcity and actual scarcity. Example: Modern cards that are "Limited" to 5, 10 , 100, 500 etc. copies, where the only difference is the color of the card. They make them every year, so how rare can they really be? As opposed to something like a 1952 Mickey Mantle "Rookie" card. With many being destroyed due to them not selling, and then getting into poorer and poorer condition as time passes, that created actual scarcity as there is rumored to only be 1500 copies left in existence. This is cardboard we're talking about. --- https://imgur.com/a/FU9H8 - https://i.imgur.com/ZkQRDsR.png - https://i.imgur.com/2x2gtgP.jpg <cite>1337toothbrush posted [p:980224052] in Remember t...
