Did I miss anything in this collecting baseball cards how to article?

[intelliracer]

I recently wrote a basic how-to article about how to begin collecting baseball cards. Does anyone have any feedback on this or think there is something I should add?

Your article on how to collect is fine. The last article I saw on the health of the hobby was was doom and gloom. Has it improved? Have young people gotten into collecting or is it more older crowd?. Most baseball card collectors see Topps as the only game in town as a downside and want a choice. Dose MLB see this as a problem? I think a updated article should be welcome even if its more doom and gloom.

Definitely could be an interesting follow up topic. Thanks for the idea.
