Then, you can go modern Bowman, Fleer, Donruss, Upper Deck, Score. All of those will be fairly easy. Then, you can branch out and start doing some of the harder stuff to find. Just a suggestion.

A great resource is the SCD catalog and teamsets4u.com.

A few great places to buy besides Ebay are sportlots.com and comc.com. Those are great places to buy commons and minor stars.
Thanks for the advice, starting out with Topps first. (I might even just stick with topps) BTW, I am aware of the teamsets4u.com site, excellent site for finding out the players from each set.

Also, from 2001 onward, I am thinking of going with Topps Heritage, I really like the look of those sets, those would go good in a binder with all of the O's by year, plus the challenge of the short prints. I am going to try and tackle the regular Topps first though.
