Ed McCollumI started a set almost 20 years ago, thinking before I died, I'd have a chance to complete it. Then reality set in, and it became depressing to realize as I looked at eBay day after day that at only 36% complete, I'd never be able to complete the set, minus the big three (and I really wanted one of those, too). About a month ago, I came up with the solution of collecting only one small part of the set, which I don't even know how many exist. I started to sell all my beaters, with the exception of one of each back, which freed up the funds to buy almost 14 cards in the past month (more than I had bought each year since 1998 combined) that fit my new criteria. The sale of my stuff is going pretty well (so far, one disgruntled buyer who sends e-mail after e-mail, but won't return any of mine, and won't pick up his phone either, so my 100% rating may be going down very soon even though I have offered him a full refund) but it has offered me a chance to look at every card that comes up on eBay, looking to see if it fits my new set guidelines, and lets me look at all cards in a new way. Find your niche, and be happy with the fit.
