No, not at all!
I appreciate your feedback. My belief is that yours is a common view.
No, I think all of my collector-customers prefer picking, although I know for sure from time to time I get picked as well!
I had the idea because I was in Las Vegas on a recreation trip and I thought, "I would be a lot more inclined to try that slot machine if it paid out Morgans!" And then I realized there was a fun fair way to do it, and I went after the dream of making it happen for collectors.
None of my collector-customers use this as their primary way of collecting - I don't think. But they do use my site as an extremely fun alternative. And a number of them have stuck with it and gotten good at it, and they have figured out how to get incredible deals from time to time, and good deals the rest of the time.
And, a number have reported getting started collecting something they would have never normally considered, and they're grateful for the opportunity to learn to love something new!
My great task is to get past that initial skepticism and make sure people just see it as a fun and fair alternative for something to do once in a while.
