I do, and even before...it's just what fits my budget. An EX 1952 Don Bollweg yes, an EX (or even P) 1951 Bowman Mantle not so much. For what its worth I've got Yankees cards that are harder to find than the Mantle rookies. All you need is money to buy Mantle rookies, I've got some that you just can't find that book 50 cents.

Just kidding. I understand what you mean. I remember searching for seven or eight years for a Cardinals card that was literally worth $3.

That's the fun for me.
