I've been doing the completely arbitrary and personal 'I collect a stock variety if it is apparent enough at a glance that I can tell in an eBay listing which version it is without zooming in'. I skip the superstars, getting a second Joe Sparma for thirty nine cents on COMC is a fun cross-off on my checklist, paying for another Hank Aaron isn't really worth it to me.
I'm getting pretty deep into the Milton Bradley's, mostly stuck on the 22 Hot Rod cards in the set. They aren't any rarer, but people just don't bother to sell them since they aren't worth much. I need the Ryan still....
