Default The condition of your monster

Reading through the monster number thread, I couldn't help but see a lot of people growing their sets rapidly, which obviously has an associated expense.

Basically got me thinking about what condition people were trying to achieve. Some people build beaters, some try to build "investment grade" sets etc etc...

Just wondering what overall condition you're trying to build your set in? I don't want this to turn into one of those threads that indicts TPG either, so if you collect raw T206s I'd say basically "grade" your own set avg condition 1-10

Also, are you building higher grade commons and lower grade HOF? I think I've seen a few people that have a lot of 6s then a bunch of Cobb/young etc etc 2 and 3s.

Obviously there's no right answer to building a set, and also it's 100% dependent on financial feasability... Most collectors simply can't put together a PSA 7/8 monster (nor can I)
