It's one thing to pay $250 for a '77 set that would've cost $150 before covid. But paying 5 grand for Mays or Jackie cards that were $1000 a year ago? That's an incredibly tough pill to swallow. I know I couldn't do it.
Agreed. I do have pretty much all of the big cards to the sets I am working on. Of course, there are some HOF cards left to buy but nothing crippling. Whenever I start to build a set, I have always tried to get the big ones first because if it took me two or three years to build a set, those key cards would have risen even more during that time. Even in this market mid and lower grade commons and semi stars are still affordable.
