The find definitely had an affect on the set, there's two camps, original circulation and BSF, personally I'm in the OC camp but there isn't a wrong way to collect the set. I think it would be more clear if BSF was designated as a separate set altogether since there were so many cards in the find. I don't know the exact number of E98s prior to BSF but I would guess it might have doubled the population which has a significant impact to the collecting dynamic prior to the find. Maybe some long time members who were collecting prior to the find can comment on the E98 world back then.
Good luck on your acquisition btw, go for Cobb if you can.
