It can be a real struggle. Im extremely deliberate in what I collect. If a card isnt part of a set / goal Im collecting; I generally dont acquire it. On top of that, Ive been working on one particular collection for the past 12-15 years and Im down to the very end - I may not add more than one or two cards a year going forward.
Not sure where I'll go next because there are so many things to consider. I cant over-extend myself on my next collection in case one of the tougher finds comes up in my first collection. I also want to start a collection that I can actually finish.
In the end, this is a long winded way of saying Im looking into a new collection centered around either a) some of my favorite historical players or b) all of the players from my favorite team within some of my favorite sets.
But Im looking long and hard before I start on any of them.
