Something that I've started doing a little more of is, instead of going for an entire set of something, I'll just go after a particular subset, team or series within the larger set. For instance, since there are hordes of t206 and t205 collectors out there now, instead of starting to try to acquire hordes of those blindly, I've decided to just go for t205 minor leaguers and t206 players from Kansas City. t210s and m116s can both be split up into the individual series they were produced within as well. Smaller projects like these save me from going after hundreds of cards I really have no interest in while still providing that "thrill of the chase" flavor that appeals to us set-collectors. In addition to diversifying my collection, it's also one less person in the market for all the other cards which does my part in keeping prices down since I won't be bidding on them
