Set collectors - flaws you are ok with

[vintagebaseballcardguy]

Ed, good to see you back at it again! I have loosened up a lot over the years. As someone who tries to build sets from the early 1950s, I can tell you that the cards aren't getting any cheaper. I prefer well centered cards, but if a common is OC, I can live with it so long as it's not MC. I used to toss out a card with a wrinkle. Now, I'm using binders again (been all over the place with that, too), and I figure a card with a wrinkle or a crease not on the face isn't going to make a big difference. I just want reasonable looking copies of cards. As I've gotten older, just completing sets has become the objective. I'm about 60ish% complete on four different sets. Two of them I'm rebuilding after having sold off the commons a while back. I used that money to buy some stars for some other sets. It's all working out, and I'm having fun.
