This has always been a problem for me, too. I hated having to buy a duplicate. Just off the top of my head the '73T Schmidt RC comes to mind. Let's face it, that card makes the '73T set worth something, so it's a must have card if you want to feel like you're gaining ground on the set. BUT, being a HOF RC Collector, too, well, I guess I have to buy another, right? Ultimately, I'd rather own duplicates to make it all happen, but inside, my heart is telling me, "dude, you could spend that money on a RC you DON'T have!"
