See I don't collect dupes because In my mind I can see another collector looking for that one card and can't get it cause someone is hoarding it. I know it sounds weird but thats what pops into my head

i COMPLETELY understand this...i wont keep set Dupes unless it is one here and there..but the scrub i player collect i think i am the only one buying his garbage...so 8-10 out of a 725 print run aint too hoardie..is it?? for a nobody?

So I had a guy Im me on Yahoo. Since I use the same user name on several forums I asked him what site he got my messenger name from. He wouldn't answer. So I said ok how can I help you. He stated that I shouldn't have put my Chris Henry collection on here for the collectors issue since Im not a true Chris Henry Collector. Well I asked uh why not? He said he was more a Chris Henry collector then I was. Stated that he had 35 exquisites and 40 Sp Authentics. And 35 Contenders. So I told him thats all fine and good but just because I don't collect dupes doesn't mean Im not a real collector. He got mad saying his cards were not considered dupes etc...

But in the end It made me wonder is he right? I try to get 1 of each card Chris Henry has. But does that make me a true collector? Or should I be like that guy and have 20 something copies of the same card? Atleast before this conversation I thought I had a decent collection. Maybe Im wrong.

Look. I said what I said because I was upset that you submitted your collection before I could. I can't afford to buy the cards I really want, so I try to make it up in quantity.

I think the guy that IM'd you is a little obsessed and weird. Sounds like he probably lives in his mom's basement or group home, is 45, no female companionship, and has more of an obsession for Chris Henry than you do...or is probably lying to you about his collection.

I haven't lived in my Mom's basement for over 8 months now. I'm only 42...
And I have had a girlfriend a few times. There's no reason to throw stones here.

I kinda figured that. Hey if he wants he can send in his collection thread too. I have no problem being known as the #2 collector of Chris Henry

Well, that is weird.
I don't think it's anyone's place to judge. I figure whatever makes you happy, do it. If someone enjoys hoarding, fine. If someone wants one of everything, that is great, too. btw, you have a great collection.

This.

And very nice collection!
