going crazy here!
 
Gotta tell you guys something...


Thanks alot! I am hooked! I spent the weekend going crazy watching auctions on ebay and I even signed up for a few of the online auction houses. Bidding on this t205 and bidding on that t205, things were alright as I stayed within my self-imposed limits. Then the s--t hit the fan. I started reasoning that "since this card was a pied 42 and that card was really, really nice looking EX I can go ahead and bid a little higher!

Fast forward a day or two and I come back to down to earth!

It really is just as difficult to build a set at VG and lower as it is to build one of much nicer cards!

It's been said many times, but remember that it's a marathon, not a sprint.

Take your time, need to be patient. I been working on the t205 set for just over two years, i have 82 cards so far.

I think they also say, "A hobby is one step away from insanity."

Or something like that.

"A hobby is one step PAST insanity"

I know the feeling. Started my set 1 1/2 years ago. 12 cards to go, have upgraded often. Totally hooked on the 05's.

Been addicted since 07' on the 205's. Collect AB, Pied 42's, miscuts, ghost, and SP Cycle backs.

To be honest any investment in the Pied 42's right now is the best. They have already started the climb. I am sure they will explode soon enough. I am just surprised the AB's didn't take off first.

To stop from going crazy with my spending I established a 10 year plan. So far it has worked pretty well.

T205 set is great but def take it slow. It's a decent size set with some big names in there. Best of luck with the set.
