Quoted from flynnibus:There are amazing collections out there... and as TBK mentioned there are major hoarder collections too. Most of the “new money” folks who have gotten into the hobby in the last 10-12 years don’t hang around those types... because they are into the hobby for different reasons and appreciate different things.
My eyes were recently opened when it comes to this kind of collector. I went to a guy's house to buy a game, and he was kind enough to show me his collection. It was impressive, to say the least! He had rare prototypes and early samples of dozens of 80's and 90's games. Most of them were in phenomenal condition. Many of the games were set up and playable, but he also had a ton of them in storage. It was a real treat to see.
