The Mathews collection sounds great - do you collect graded or raw? targeting fairly high grade? Which one did you find the toughest to get a reasonable price on -of the ones you own?

I only collect graded, with this "loosely" as my general rule...

on anything pre-1972 the lower the grade, the better.
on 72 to 79, looking for 7's, 8's and possibly 9's
on 80 to 09, looking for 9's and possibly 10's

For Mathews, i go for 5/6 maybe 7's

Of the ones i own, they were all fairly reasonable. Havnt tracked down an affordable '53 bowman yet. its the '52 that wont be reasonable!!! LOL
