I'm starting to come around to your line of thinking Luke. It's been 3 1/2 years now collecting pre-war. Now that I think I've figured out my collecting goals, I'm starting to have more fun looking at/organizing my collection and putting together my website than "hunting" for cards. Part of that might be that my wantlist is getting more and more expensive/rare as the cards and types I need are pretty tough. I'm also having fun selling cards here on the BST that I originally bought before I figured out my niche and no longer fit my collection.

I think it's about evenly balanced for me, since, as I've stated before, the cards are actually a two-dimensional slice of a 3-dimensional moment in a player's career taken contemporaneously therewith--they connect you to the player, and take you back to the time. As my objective in collecting HOF'er's and stars is to have the significant aspects of the history of the game I can actually hold in my hands, I still need more of the same, although I find it a delight to enjoy those cards already acquired towards that quest.
Good post, Larry |
