I don't think I've ever met anyone who collects but doesn't actively play these games. However I've met tons of people who play casually and don't really collect.
- ketzo 6y agoI'm with you that there are definitely a lot of players. But recently, speculation on/collection of Pokemon cards in particular has become kind of a big thing.

- duskwuff 6y agoEven there, the reason those cards are considered valuable is ultimately because people played the game. Not necessarily the same people who are collecting the cards now, but that's where it started. There are hundreds of other CCGs from the 90s whose cards are basically worthless today because the game was a commercial failure.
