Default Sets that aren't worth completing

Have you ever started a set only to realize that putting the effort and cost wasn't worth it?

I'm a set collector and have accumulated hundreds of them. I started working on a Salutation Exhibit set and got down to just right left including variations.

I realized that the eight I needed would take several thousand dollars to complete. That set isn't really bought and sold that way, so I bailed.

I did the same thing with 1960 Leaf. The low numbers were no problem, but spending $20 each for the 72 high numbers just didn't add up.
