do you ever fear Upper Deck or Topps going out?

[Collector]

The collecting world used to be filled with many different card companies and we now find ourself down to only two! With this said, does anyone have a fear of Topps or Upper Deck possibly going out next? If so, could this end collecting for most of us? I'll be honest, I've always liked Topps and Upper Deck. I think both of them are still going strong. If either of them go out, then there will be no need in collecting sports cards anymore. I'll most likely quit if either of them go out. I certainly think the compeitition is fairly equal at this point, though.

Thanks, Collector

I have no fear of Topps going out ..... move plants from different states now and then, but closing...na, I don't think so. They're the Grandpappies of the business. Now Upper Deck....I myself just liked them from the start, I hope everything goes well for them. Topps need some kind of competition.
