I totally agree with this entire post from my recent collecting experience. I actually decided on saving more to buy a better graded Cobb than what 2gs would get me. Buy a nice HOF card with great eye appeal in the 4-5 grade range that’s a superior example for the grade.

I would not focus on Cobb at that price point, but rather Matty/Young/Johnson, maybe Speaker, for much better value.
But if you're looking at this from an investment standpoint, it feels like we are at a recent crest of pricing with a lot of interest in T206, and so not a great time to do so.
Some of the run up in prices has been pretty exuberant...
I would suggest that there is much greater upside value in T-cards *outside* of the T206 set at the moment.
