+1. For my T206 set, I try to shoot for nice looking SGC 20-40 examples. I'd rather have a spot of paper loss on the back and a really nice looking front than an example with multiple creases. It also depends on the card. For my favorite commons, I'll go up to SGC 60 if I can get a reasonable price. For the Cobbs and rare backs, I'll drop down in grade if I can get a nice looking front on the Cobb or a clean back on the rare backs, with some defects to the opposite side on each.

Desiderata
You are a child of the universe,
no less than the trees and the stars;
you have a right to be here.
And whether or not it is clear to you,
no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.
With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams,
it is still a beautiful world.
Strive to be happy.
