Default 3, of course

My niche is 3 (SGC 40)... to me its the sweet spot of appeal and cost/value.

I voted for a 3 also, almost went with a 4. That's an area which still shows the natural age look along with presenting well. A high grade set is a beautiful sight for sure (like Wonka's ), and no doubt more impressive.

And beater collectors are awesome- that's true love for T206's

Sincerely, Clayton

My niche are SGC 60/PSA 5. But when I see a 6, I am usually awe-inspired.

Default Sweet Spots

In the current announcer lingo, I don't have very good command of T206 focus. My set ranges from barely recognizable to NM+, so I went with 4.
Mathematically my standard deviation is statistically high, therefore.....

I must be considered a standard deviant with poor command.

Sort of the Ryne Duren of the collecting world. For those who don't remember Ryne, I include the following reference

He was known for the combination of his blazing fastball and his very poor vision. With his thick coke bottle glasses, few batters dared to dig in against Duren. Casey Stengel said, "I would not admire hitting against Ryne Duren, because if he ever hit you in the head you might be in the past tense."

You can't hit the Sweet Spot if you can't see it.

I voted 4. But some of my best looking cards are PSA 1's with perfect fronts with paper loss on the back. I really don't care about the loss of paper on the back of a card with a NM front. Price is a great consideration also. I have 3 HOF's in that condition that I payed much less that $100 a piece for.
