Got to 520 last year with a mostly low-grade set. For me, this site was what was really the catalyst for it and I doubt I would have pursued that set without it. Seeing all of the photos, back combinations, etc., of cards owned by members was too much to resist.

Initially, I put it together as an investment while consolidating my collection drastically. But in all honesty, it will be hard for me to ever give them up. I've even started hanging onto my duplicates now so that if the time comes where I need to sell, I can start with those! I thumb through my binder nearly every day, am constantly upgrading cards, and am fascinated by them.

I'm not saying I'd never sell them. After all, it's still only cardboard. But for me, they've really gone from an investment to a personal treasure.
