Jim CrandellWhy do I do it and why do I spend so much money doing it?
Two different questions.
1)I like to collect complete sets
2)I like sets that are in nrmt-mt or better condition
3)I want to make odds as high as possible I am getting unaltered cards.
4)I like the competition.
5)I believe that high grade, low population vintage cards are a good investment. Certainly in recent years they have been.
6)I would never buy an ungraded card.
7)I personally have met at least 50 people on the PSA Set Registry--some I compete with--some not.
8)I get a lot of e-mails from dealers and fellow collectors offering me cards and wanting to buy certain of my cards. There is no way I would have finished so many sets in psa 8 and better if not for this.
9)Its fun.
