This is not to say I am getting them so cheaply I could turn them for a profit, but I think I could come close to breaking even, which isn't bad for something that's really a hobby. I couldn't do that playing golf.

I'm with you, Todd - my game is in the crapper these days, but in the past couple of years, I've managed to complete the last two Bowman sets for a complete run, and for less than a couple grand each. Not sure if they would grade at six to eight, as I only collect ungraded, but they are certainly presentable. I think maybe the OP has a valid point about the current market value of some postwar sets.
