Jeez Phil, I feel like I need to take shower now after calling myself a
collector :)

Let's see... you buy stuff, you sell stuff. That's called dealing in
something, no matter what it is.
 
If Michael wants $75 for his insert, that's his business, if he gets it even
if it's not now it may be later.
 
Using the "I'm a collector" routine that somehow makes one seem special,
because you're not a dealer - who, as we know, are the scum of the earth
until they have something you want and are usually the first place
"collectors" turn for free advice when they are trying to sell something -
is tiring.
 
Most "champions of the hobby" set themselves up as "collectors first" but
they are buying and selling regularly so are dealers. They even use the term
"the hobby" so it doesn't sound like they are in business - "hobby" being a
seemingly far more friendly term than "business"... because
"business"usually means "profit".... and heaven forbid that a "collector"
make a profit. "Hobby"measn we are all in this together, looking out for our
mutually interested buddies. 
 
Sheesh! as Ari would say.
 
Phil
