Have a good one,

Steve, think about going for an ungraded mid-grade set, choosing cards for visual appeal. Get them cheap, sell off cards you don't like as you find decent upgrades. I've been doing it that way, with the added twist of finding something 'odd' about most of my keepers and upgrading to 'more odder' keepers; e.g: tough backs, two names, misfits, etc. A nice thing about doing it the 'ungraded' way, is that you won't care as much if you think a card might be trimmed - as long as you like it, you keep it. Final benefit: sell off those slabs for big bucks and replace with cheap tobacco top loaders that allow you to easily access your cards and see their true beauty.
