2.) I decided I would only buy the nicest centered cards in 3-5 grade range with the majority in the 3-4 range. To me, having high eye appeal cards was important. It definitely has made me pickier.
I am at 74 (I think...have to check because I just got two more in the last day) so I am off of my plan but should make up for it next year.
Another fun thing I did was start a thread posting my journey. Kinda fun for me to document my journey.

A lot of good advice here. Budget and what condition you want are what I prioritized. The other thing I would say is to learn rarity and when you have a chance to pull the trigger on one for your set do it. You are going for the 520, Demmitt and O"Hara are the keys. Buy them the first chance you get.
