I'd rather collect a set one-by-one, did it with t206 cards and it was a great feeling when I reached my goal. That being said, I started buying Old Judge cards afterwards and if I had a chance to buy a whole player set, along with the money to do it(I'd love to know where this part is coming from) I would definitely buy the whole set because there are players that just don't ever show up. I recently bought two cards at the same time that are on the "very scarce" list from the Miller/Masson/Gonsowski book and that felt like a huge accomplishment.
Collecting sets is much more fun and gratifying than buying complete ones

Another with 13 players who were with the Pittsburgh Pirates during the regular season, but never played a game. There's also one about 27 baseball families, as well as a day-by-day look at the worst team in Pittsburgh Pirates history.
