You can find really nice looking commons from good to very good condition easily from $20 -$30. Sometimes even $15. Commons are pretty affordable.
Welcome aboard by the way!

It's all good. My collection is all over the place. The majority of my cards are graded, but I've bought most of my cards raw and submitted them. about 20 percent of my collection is raw. I'm almost at 100 t206s
 . For the rare backs, I usually stick with lower grades because I can afford them. Commons on the other hand are good because you can get a nice looking PSA 5/SGC60 for about $90-$110, depending on the player, eye appeal, and how sharp the corners are of course.

welcome to the board and good luck with your collecting goals!
Some basic stuff: 1. collect what you like, with emphasis on the YOU. 2. once you start off, don't be afraid or hesitant to change directions if that's where it takes you. You might start off liking a subset, but then that morphs into a new subset. Just have fun with it! 3. If you're going the graded route, two sites that can help with pricing are: http://www.vintagecardprices.com/ http://www.cardtarget.com/

thx, that sounds good. i'll be sure to check those sites out.. that is a big fear, overpaying for a common card or buying a fake or trimmed card.

Fun set for sure
The only advice I can give is: 1) It is a marathon NOT a sprint. Be patient and wait for the right card at the right price. Unless you start getting into tough backs, most of the set is not rare. 2) If you choose to buy graded, I find that currently a typical common in PSA/SGC graded 3 should cost in the $30-40 range. Anything less than that is a bargain. 3) Read Scot Readers work "Inside T206" Have fun and good luck
