sets
interesting topic
I also enjoy putting together older sets...and most times when Im done..Im looking to sell or trade them .Im trying to unload a 35 Goudey complete set now..and its not as easy as it seems...I think most collectors dont have huge money to buy an older set in one shot. Fortunetly for me..when I sell a set..it not that I need the money for an emergency/family/expenses,etc..., its just to get me cash to start an even tougher/ more expensive set I knew a collector who wore a toupee..and every time he needed a new one...he would sell a complete set of cards...he later stopped wearing toupees !

Huggins and Scott Auctions often sells large lots including modern sets...if you plan to sell them. I sold off all of my post 1979 Topps set for the same reason...bought it and put them in the binder...but then never looked again..

Sets
I always end up keeping my sets. It is too hard to seel something I've worked so hard at completing. As an aside, I never sell the cards I've upgraded either. Just sort of hang on to everything.

We all struggle with emotional attachments to things we would be better off without. But maybe that's part of what makes us human. Who would invest the time, energy and funds in completing a set unless each card meant something special? It's what separates collectors from speculators.

Yes,
I agree the atachment to cards and sets is a strong bond. They make a bonding adhesive that men use to hold their hair pieces on their heads also..but I think the baseball card bond is stronger

Hangman62: Is that toupee bonding agent Topps bubble gum slabs from the 1970's?
