With some of the high grade complete or near complete sets coming up
for auction soon if you had (or have) the money would you want to buy a comlete set of your favorite vintage cards at one time? Personally for me alot of the fun is in the hunt buying them a few here and there, not that it wouldn't be nice, but it would be a one shot and mission accomplished. I know with some of the rare sets it's probably the only way you could complete them. |

If I had the money. I would buy a T206 complete set and have fun selling some of the common backs and upgrading to rarer backs.

For me it's all about the journey. I would never purchase a complete set, but to each his/her own.

I'd rather collect a set one-by-one, did it with t206 cards and it was a great feeling when I reached my goal. That being said, I started buying Old Judge cards afterwards and if I had a chance to buy a whole player set, along with the money to do it(I'd love to know where this part is coming from) I would definitely buy the whole set because there are players that just don't ever show up. I recently bought two cards at the same time that are on the "very scarce" list from the Miller/Masson/Gonsowski book and that felt like a huge accomplishment.
Collecting sets is much more fun and gratifying than buying complete ones
