I agree that there are several variables to this decision. If we are talking about a set I'm not really into, like the 34 Goudeys, I'd rather have a really nice Gehrig. But I'm working on an E98 set and only need four more to complete it. I'd rather have the last four in low grade and have a full low grade set that includes all the major players than just a really nice Cobb or Wagner from the set.
I can see a non set builder wanting a nice star card over the complete set, but I like the small sets like caramels to be complete.
There really is no wrong answer here.
