There have also been a few stretches where I've been more into selling than buying. I have to agree with Scott that the e95 and e96 sets are my favorite. I don't think I'll ever want to part with them. At the moment, I'm not sure I can say the same for my t206s.

Thanks, Luke. I built the E95 and E95 sets 12 years ago - took about a year, but seemed forever. It was great thinking back on how I acquired each card - Frank (FKW) supplied several, including some cut-outs from notebook covers. I picked up a bunch from Mike Wheat - he was great about working with me. I remember how board members kept dis'ing him about his prices, but he was my go-to guy for a lot of card issues. It was fun. Since then, regardless of what I buy and sell, I always grab E95/E96's anytime I find a decent deal. If I could have a 'dream set', it would be a set of these, all autographed by the players.
