I've completed this set in varying grades and as others have said, they can generally be had for a couple bucks (or less) and maybe $4-5 for nice condition examples. It's a gorgeous set.
I do slightly disagree with this:

Edward Payson Weston (card back pictured below) is perhaps my favorite card in the set and I have one in a float frame on my desk at work, which makes for a nice conversation piece when people see it. The back of his card back is a pretty amazing read. It starts with this sentence: "Edward Payson Weston is probably the greatest pedestrian that ever lived." He would have been around 70 years old when this set was released. Other than Connie Mack and maybe Casey Stengel, I can't think of many sports sets that had a guy that old who was still active in his sport.
Great set overall - you'll enjoy putting it together if you decide to pursue it.
