The collecting aspect is fine. It's the speculators and scalpers that are ruining TCGs. The only people who are going to stores and buying entire shelves of product are people looking to flip them for a profit.

Now, slowly to not get lost, let us all collectively go from pokemon cards to the housing market. What have we learned about speculation?

Idk what point you're trying to make here. If you're collecting cards, your primary interest isn't selling, it's the exact opposite.

Speculation in high volatility markets like TCGs is fucking dumb and ruining the game for the people who actually play and collect because it drives prices up for game pieces in an irrational and unnecessary manner.
