Funny! With the set builders there's a common theme of collecting cards before the end of the Topps monopoly era (for the most part) and OCD, lol. I know it affects me. When I got back into cards briefly in 2003/2004 I tried to collect a "set", but which one, just the base, there's a bazillion inserts and autos, ugh. Then I tried collecting team sets of the A's, but that still bothered me. When I got back into it 3 years ago it was a specific purpose and I vowed I would never buy anything past 1980. At first I was just going to collect the years I initially liked, then it was every year, then I thought what the heck, collect the birth year set too, HAha.
With my particular form of OCD I even have a hard time looking through the binder if I know there's blank spots, lol. Although I'm not quite at the level of needing color coordinated binders...but that is very cool darkhorse!
