It seems that absolutely nothing has changed with how Doug Allen/Legendary operates. This from thei upcoming auction: Read this It amazes me that people still just them, but most people say stuff trumps all. Sorry, but for me, stuff does not trump my personals morals and ethics. Legendary, Doug Allen will never see a penny from me even if they have the one item I really want.

Do you make an effort to collect rookie cards?

I personally have never been a big collector of rookie cards at anytime, always thought it was a weird fascination.
