T206Collector...are my speciality, whether it's pumping up SGC or sharing countless pics of my Plank and Magie cards.
But, I never would have sold 80% of my set to get the Plank if I wasn't putting my cards where my mouth is, so to speak.
I do think that some T206 cards have a higher propensity for losing value -- As an example, I am surprised that yellow background Chances (which were super printed) sell for as much as they have been lately. They used to get put in the same price slot as, say, Joss pitching or even a Beckley or Kelley.
I would prefer to collect the rare HOFers and SL'ers first, this time around, but I can't resist a good price on an SGC 50 common -- I was able to pick up the rare Donlin fielding in an SGC 50 on ebay last night for $75! That card has regularly sold for well over $100.
