Yes I agree. It's a tough decision I am fighting with.

How long have you been contemplating selling? You should give it at least a week. Then sell off a small group you could easily replace. After that see how you feel. Honestly having seen some of your other posts you seem a bit impulsive at times. I am the same way and it never works out well for me. Good luck.

Unless you need the money put the scorecards away, just tuck them in a closet out of sight and forget about them. My guess is you'll regret getting rid of them if you do. Focus on the tickets for a while and when you get bored with that dig out your scorecards.

Not a bad idea either. There's no harm in that.

Yep, I have a few regrets along the way. Wish I'd never sold off my snapshot collection, but it is what it is.

Yea, I started just his card run.... then his pins.... then programs and stubs....Then magazines and yearbooks....then snap shots and newspapers. HAHA

It gets pricey. I have some great pieces, but don't know if I need them all.

I have a bunch of old Ruth Magazines too that I started collecting recently.

I gotta stop hahaha.

Ticket stubs self identify their date, so I would think it would be easier -- relatively speaking -- to collect a specific range of those than programs, as it will be difficult to find scored versions to fill out EVERY game on your want list. Of course, it will still be hard to get all the stubs you want. That may be a factor if you have your heart set on completing the run.

I am DEF impulsive lol. It's just I don't share the same passion for the programs that I do with the stubs. It makes me buying them harder and harder. I used to pay over 100 for a 55 program, now I'm staying away which shows I am losing interest. I will wait a week and see.
