Thinking about switching direction ... good, bad, indifferent, waste of time?

Just remember, there are no rules and no right or wrong answers. It is supposed to be fun. I've started lots of projects, decided I just don't want to do them, and moved on to something else.

Preach it brother! I'm 21 cards short of a 1964 Topps baseball set, with Gibson being the only missing HOFer, and I've run out of steam on it. I guess being this close, I'll finish it, but there is no drive to chase those last ones down.

I have so many sets I collect, I rarely seem to finish. I'm also looking to not pay top dollar, and because I am working on so many I have no shortage of things to buy.

I have found that when I do complete a set, I hardly look at is when compared to the ones I am building or upgrading. For me, my "inbox" will always have (collecting) tasks in it.

For me, if I didn't need the money, I'd keep the '58's and pick them up when you find a bargain. Some sets i didn't love ten years ago sometimes find a rejuvenated passion. If I need the cash to sustain my buying habits, then for sure piece them out as you have. Lots of good suggestions here on how to do so.
