People collect phone cards for a variety of reasons, but
the majority collect them for the same reasons others might collect
stamps, coins, and sports trading cards.

Some people are interested in Corporate names and promotions.
Many workers from IBM might Love to own an IBM phone card. Many
AT&T workers may want to own AT&T phone cards. What about animals,
or Star Trek, or Marilyn Monroe, McDonald's, or Elvis?
|
| Sometimes collectors become speculators and buy merchandise
for "investment". Cards can go up in value (The 1st AT&T card
issued in 1992 sells for over $1000.), but they can also go down
in value. We've seen a NYNEX $1. phone card go from $1700. down to
$125., and a Sprint card go from $50. down to $4. |

SO - our advice has always been to collect for enjoyment. Sure ...
if you want to buy two of an item so that you might someday trade
the extra for a different issue you want; that's okay. But don't
"invest" or speculate with collectibles specifically to make money.
