In my opinion, given the fact that many buyers of art buy things as investment assets, that is, a priori, imply the sale, the boundaries of the concept of "collecting" blurred. So I understand people by dealers who make a turnover of others things. People who purchase the items and keep them or work with them to increase prices (make promotional exhibitions, publish somewhere and so, even if not themselves, but with the help of prof. Participants in those segments of the market) is likely to be known art investors. Clean collectors, for whom things have a self-worth, I have never met.
So clear and precise.
PS: I have a dozen or two things in the collection, which I would like you never want to sell. Asked myself the simple question now - as if surprised the price? Answer - selling. :-)
