I built my sets "any condition" and I mean ANY! Hole punched, wrote on, creased, bent, trimmed, it didn't matter. Over the years I've upgraded many of the real "beaters", and now my sets present very well. "Quantity over Quality" and bent over digging through the bargain boxes at all the shows. Welcome to my collecting style

I am thinking as long as I stayed within a grade or grade and a half, I wouldn't mind it. Thoughts?
