Even the small number of replies suggests that it's completely a matter of taste. I personally love upgrading. I ran after a 1948 Leaf set and completed it in just about 8-9 months, but as you can imagine, they're all not the same grade. Right now they're kind of all over the map, but for me, I got to 'pat myself on the back' along the way by having a complete set. Now I can go back and make the set more consistent.
Yup, it's more expensive that way, but then again, what's the point of just, say, going out and buying the entire Leaf set thru an REA auction? Might as well buy some municipal bonds!
