Larry L- makes sense to me. Whatever we collect it really has to make us happy as there are a million ways to collect and everyone has a different view and "appetite". Since you can't see your cards (physically) for a long time it does make sense to go for cards in SGC80 or 6. Don't want to go into the whole grading debate but SGC, BVG and PSA are all good choices. Good luck in your endeavors.
For me, I always like variety so type collecting made sense from day 1. Since I got back into collecting, around 17 yrs ago, I have tried a few other things...... but when push comes to shove, and my resources dictate a direction, it's type collecting that wins out. As a matter of fact I just gave up another side distraction in my collecting (type 1 photos) as I just can't collect them and still focus on types due to limited (and not limitless) resources. The main thing is that I am collecting what I ENJOY. I love the hobby and think the good folks far outweigh the bad ones. We just have to stick together and help each other and the hobby is so much more enjoyable (at least to me). I am very biased but I can't think of a better vintage board on the net. Take care and thanks for your participation on the board.
