I ask myself this question about the 52 Topps high number commons all the time. In fact I remember one night on eBay recently where I was the winning bidder on one, $180 or so for someone I never heard of and didn’t care about, where as soon as the auction ended I said out loud “what the f&ck am I doing?!”

Anyway, the desire to complete the 52 set is strong, but without the Mantle why am I spending so much on average condition coach cards?!

I feel the same way collecting all the Koufax leader cards graded…but then I either get pulled back in when I find a nice one or threads like this make me realize I don’t have to buy a 52 Mantle so in a way feel lucky.

But still, most of them I could get for $5-$10 or less each but I keep looking for PSA 7 and 8s that cost way more…..seems silly, but for some reason I keep doing it LOL

Then once I have a bunch, I’m like damn, if I just collected those leaders raw I’d have a couple more low grade 55 Koufax RCs….ah, the circle of collecting.
