Default #2

I have the #4 Clemente master set. I used to be partnered with a friend and had the #1 set for 5 years. I have always collected to the beat of my own drum. I encountered much frustration over the years with set registry inconsistency in recognizing some variations and not others, not appropriately weighting cards according to their own criteria and relegating some of the toughest test issues to "optional" land. My set currently sits at 80 something percent complete - it will never be 100% complete per PSA's definition and I don't really care. There are a handful of items that I do hope to acquire/reacquire that would fill holes in the set as it stands. My collection extends well beyond the parameters of the registry. I have purchased a handful of cards in PSA holders in the past with the registry in mind. I haven't done that in a while. Mostly I buy what I like and want and have my own goals. I do have a bunch of other registry sets started, but don't pay much attention to them.

I am accepting select private consignments of quality vintage cards (raw or graded) and collecting "want" lists for higher end ($1K+) vintage cards.
