I would still collect and work on them if they were give-aways. And if the price went way up, i'd still keep what i have. I buy and sell some too, selling has been pretty soft lately. It is true that folks don't want to drive far to pick up items anymore. But local buyers are still around.
I never tried to make a living off the hobby, THAT IS THE KEY. Those that do; YES; they are gonna be hurtin right now. Those that do it for the fun and fellowship will not sell the farm.
