I did my Post cereal sets around 2002. I used to love to buy large lots. The price per card was usually cheaper that way.
By the time my Post cereal sets were complete, I had picked up about 75% of the 1962 Post Canadians and the 1963 Jell-os. I had only picked up about 60 of the 1962 Jell-Os.
I didn't know if I wanted to do any of those 3 sets, I knew they would be tough and expensive. I left them alone and moved on to other things.
In 2019, I decided to return to those sets. I guessed the 1962 Jell-O set would be a 10 year project, at a minimum. So I'm now in my 6th year. I have made a lot of progress, but I still need some toughies. Will I make it ?
Lol, YOU will make it Wayne. You are sneaky good at finding cards out there that are listed incorrectly.
I am still half-heartedly considering selling off my set. It's hard to say that knowing I'm only about 15 cards away. Is that right?? You know better how many I need than I do, lol.
There are a couple higher dollar items that I've had my eye on and selling my Jell-O set would be a pretty quick way to fund the other purchases. As you probably know, I moved out some of my graded Post Canadian. They had been sitting there in a box since after I got them from you and had those graded. I hadn't done much to work on that set or upgrade it. I have so much stuff laying around and I need to consolidate... or so my wife says.
