Liquidate your 5.0 and 6.0's and buy the low grade pre-war cards. Then replace your 1950s/60s stars with good 3.0 grades. That is how I've come to terms with your dilemma. I'm happy with my decision. I have more cards to enjoy.
Good advice. I have increasingly adopted this outlook and am essentially targeting the types of cards that would have made me happy when I first approached vintage many years ago.
