This has come to a halt lately at 335/407.
When it comes to all those high numbers, seeing a possible "lifetime" project after all! Now that I managed to get the rest of the big cards, it makes you feel more impatient to have the whole set. But I can't stomach paying triple the going rate for BIN leftovers |

Naturally after the prior post, managed to get a few acceptable deals on small lots and singles of high number commons/minors.
Feeling a little closer now 352/407 |

A shopping spree with ebay bucks during this month.
One away from being past the halfway point for the high numbers! 358/407 |

For the first time in awhile, there are new additions here. Key ones too!
Picked up Campanella and Reese from a forum member. Now the only main cards left are Hoyt Wilhelm and....for the love of god....Tony Bartirome. 360/407 |

Thanks Dale.
Now the question is: do I wait to see if Bartirome crashes eventually (or risk that situation getting even worse)? |

Appreciate it Adam.
I'm pleased with the eye appeal of the top of the set, and that I was able to get the big boys in grade 3 and most of the other huge cards in around grade 4 without breaking the bank. And all clean except for Jackie (even though it's a very weak 3, am glad to have gotten him at all just before the spike in recent months). The commons (both high and low #) drag down the overall set grade a little since about half of them would be 1.5s or 2s, but that's ok. It's difficult enough to build this at all, much less get everything in at least VG |
