I've read a few posts from the forum before so I thought i'd take the plunge and join in
Whilst I wouldn't call myself a collector in the sense of vintage cards from the early days I have a vastly increasing collection and love collecting some of the USPCC brands that are now sadly defunct (Arrco, Steamboat, Broadway Seconds etc) along with many of the casino decks Wynn etc. If I could be Marty McFly and go back to the past I would and hoard large numbers of these decks as you now have to hunt high and low and pay that little bit more to get them. I gave up Magic for a while whil'st I became busy with college and work and regret that I missed out on some quality decks of cards which I now feel are lacking in the standard offerings sold these days.
Having said that I suppose there is no sense of gratification in locating things easily so perhaps it's a good thing :)

Hey, Phil!
Welcome to the Discourse and the world of playing card collecting. There's no one type of collector out there, so you'll find you're in good company around here.
