I started collecting with ZERO agenda. I just liked the cards and wanted some. Then it turned into I want to get all the White Sox players. Then I bought the book T206 The Players and Their Stories, I wanted all of the "Bad Boys" then all of the "Overlooked by Cooperstown", then it turned into just any card that caught my eye. The great thing about this set is you can see cards but you'll never remember them all. Some cards you didn't like at first you can wind up loving. A card that has a certain great eye popping color can do it even if the cards design isn't the greatest.

Speaking from a person who's spending isn't that much that's how my approach has been. The HOF players I do have I've spent under $100 on every single one, they aren't in the greatest condition but I'm willing to sacrifice a little just to own a HOF card.

Just another way of looking at it.
Josh, I purchased a copy of The T206 Collection : The Players and Their Stories. I am working my way through it and finding it very enjoyable. It really helps tie a few things together for me and gives me some ideas about how I might want to approach T206. Thanks for mentioning it. I had seen it but might not have bought it had you not pointed it out.
