I've considered a similar course of action in my own collection. Selling a bunch of lesser cards to fund the purchase of one nicer one. Only, instead of looking at Mantles I'm looking at Cobb and Wagner. I just can't do it though. I love my cards and figure some day I'll either get a Cobb or not. Whatever. I'll get what I can now because I love the hobby and I love collecting baseball cards. I'm not running out of stuff to buy any time soon.
