Yes, but someone who buys items and holds onto them in mint condition for resale value is no more a "real" fan than someone who buys them for personal enjoyment.
Agreed, but I was answering as if you meant your question literally, rather than as if you were just nitpicking the other commenter's phrasing. Your implied meaning was just "I disagree with the way you're defining 'real fan'", but that's a pretty boring comment to respond to, so I took what I judged as the more interesting interpretation.
