It all depends on what you collect. I tend to go after some obscure stuff. The two most famous athletes in the world, Muhammad Ali and Pele, had cards issued all over the world and some of the really obscure issues have one or a few known examples. Want an Israeli Ali or Pele card? Good luck with that.
I also totally agree with Raulus. If I don't need the cash, there is simply no way that I will part with a rare card for money (unless the offer is obscene) but a trade, definitely worth consideration. For me, it is because I can tell myself a trade is a win-win. I swapped extreme rarities with a fellow collector fairly recently and it was perfect. He got the better player and I got the player I actually collect. Financially hard to say who got over, but I preferred his card and he preferred mine, so it worked.
