So I bought the near set of 48 cards, and during a "eBay Bucks" offer, I picked up both Sullivan cards I needed from the same seller.
So yeah I completed the T220 Mecca boxing set in a week, and it's a great set. But I just "broke out the checkbook" and missed out on "The Hunt".

Some people like to spend their hobby time looking at cards rather than looking for cards. There's no shame in either.
