Just a suggestion but you say you have a handful of higher graded cards you might sell to get some cash to purchase lower condition cards. One of the things I loved as a kid and try to do now as an adult is trade cards. I remember trading away a 1978 Nolan Ryan card for a Ed Ott card because his name sounded cooler to me. Dumb trade but great memory.
See if you can find someone looking for high grade and would be willing you trade a stack of lower grade for it. Put something on the BST and give it a try. If no one bites nothing list but maybe you would come up with something great fir birth parties and all you paid for was shipping.
I have made a few trades on the boards and done very well. Great way to interact with collectors as well without always feeling like a business transaction.
Just a thought,
Drew
