    never too old, you will always get people that give you looks for collecting. But who cares what others think. I have tons of odler friends, who are near 40 and collect heavily.

    is that a issue within the card companies? its been 2-3 years since i bought a pack of cards. prices are high, and GU and Autos seem to be very common now a days. they are no longer "Rare". i remember buying card packs and dreaming of pulling a GU or a auto but now i could go buy 3 packs and have a good chance of getting a hit.

    You can never be to old or to young if you enjoy doing it. I'm sure people have way weirder interests then collecting cards. But if you feel that way, you could always buy cards or boxes online if you don't do that already.

    I don't think their has to be an age on it. I'm 31 and love collecting cards but some people might think thats weird. However i agree with thunda99 that kids can't afford the high card prices these days so we (Adults) are left to keep it going.

    Thanks,
    Dave
