Default Downgrade & replace - a good strategy to self-fund your collection?
I'm wondering how many here have taken a strategy of occasionally downgrading cards in their collections in order to help fund new card additions?

I don't have a ton of cards like this but I did buy a few nicer ones (1953 Paige, T206 Matty and T205 Speaker) that are 4's or 5's that I could probably enjoy almost as much at 2 or 2.5 and it might create a nice pool of funds to fill my collection holes.

I'd love to hear others' experiences with this as a "Downgrade & Replace" strategy with your collection.

Thoughts/Advice? Tips or lessons learned?

Thanks all -

Jeff
