Sometimes I feel like I'm trying to corner the market on rare non-HoFers from sets that people have little interest in.

I wasn't exactly trying to hoard them, but at one point I had 3 of the 7 graded e92 Nadja Jennings and knew where 3 more were (1 in each of the top 2 registry sets and 1 in a board member's Jennings collection). Traded 1 of mine to another board member for his Jennings back run this summer.

T206 Honus Wagner. Terrific card. I had 3 at one point and wanted to get the rest. One person actually had the rest for sale, and I was in the middle of making a deal with him when...
... I woke up. What a dream.

Years ago I started buying all the T204 Tom Reilly cards I could find. I wasn't hoarding them per se, I planned on destroying them because he wasn't good enough to be in the set and I thought 120 cards seemed more logical for a set size than 121. It was also out of spite for no Pirates in the set. Maybe someday I'll start buying them again to finish my goal, but I think it's been at least 14 years since I bought one.

in the past when boxing was selling a bit better, I had a good amount of specific boxing cards. I enjoyed it and may do it again

I once owned two rookie cards of Bill Bradley. I figured that if he was elected to the Presidency I would sell one at a handsome profit. While I haven't given up hope, I'm starting to think it was a bad investment.

This thread is a psychologist's doctoral thesis waiting to happen.
