Default Set collectors - what cards give you the most hassle?

Posted By: quan

this was a couple years back but probably still relevant today concerning the last card(s) i needed...

e93-wiltse, chance (not that tough in the grand scheme of things)
e94-overall tough in general...needed bates and young and a couple more commons.
e95- all pretty much easy
e96-i found adams to be tough
e97-yucky set so frustrating...the nicholls, rossman, bradley not to mention the other rarities and the young i still don't have
e98-coombs, tenney i found early (guess i was lucky)...never had a vaughn.
e102-the usual rarities, i've seen the doyle batting the least compared with miller/wagner throwing. magee not that tough in my experience.
e103-wood/chance? only got about half the set so i will defer to alan and peter etc.

edited to add the most frustrating sets were the e94s, e97s, and e102s for me. the first 80-90% were relatively smooth, then I sat on those for around 2 years waiting for cards...then getting outbidded before I gave up.
