  1. Interest in the hobby tends to wax and wane, and right now the boom in the hobby is at least partially fueled by the boomers whose interest in the hobby surged when they were reminded of their old friends by the U.S.mint and the state quarter program. When the boomers (or their heirs) liquidate, there will be a much smaller pool of buyers in the U.S. Who knows how the international investors will impact the market. I'd expect the TPG's will be critical going forward, as the market transitions to less experienced collectors. I doubt the market will support three undifferentiated services, but it needs at least two. JMO
