I think it is perfectly fine, and normal, to collect tarot decks, simply for the sake of collecting. A great deal of people on these boards do just that. And for those who do actual readings, whether for themselves or for others, seem to have a few decks they work with, and quite a collection they don't use, but enjoy looking at. The artwork and presentation, interpretations of the decks are so diverse it is mystifying. I love seeing how certain artists present various cards, what colours do they choose, what symoblism, style, what was their inspiration? I know people who collect expensive china figurines, and then put them in boxes in closets and forget they own them! Collecting is a healthy hobby, and a great way to educate onself and open up to new worlds. Have lots of fun with it! Also, if someone got ahold of a deck I was craving to read, and they just wanted it for collecting, I would not mind. That is life-it is fair game, as far as I am concerned. Maybe there is a reason that deck is trying to avoid me and be with you!
