Hi Alan this is exaclty correct 100% a TRUE collector collects for the love of the hobby for the thrill of the HUNT of the rare item or the pleasure to have a computer complete in its box or to have a complete line of computers,such as all Conchess as an example someone who collects only for potential increase in value is NOT a true collector,he is a dealer and i have seen all sorts of dealers some will buy and sell straight away other will buy and wait i have seen "so called" collectors buy then suddenly sell in a year or even two and always at far greater prices Best Steve
