Not sure the point of this comment. Stress? What stress? we all have a lot of stress in our lives, completing sets is NOT one of them.
"Stress out" is probably the wrong term.

Now I've been a completist on the Hockey, CFL and non-sport cards I've been collecting since 1979 when I took up re-amassing the cards of my formative years. But the 2nd series of 1964-65 Topps Hockey Tall Boys and the hundreds of ugly, head shots (many even hatless) included in the 1954-65 Topps Baseball sets have resulted in an attitude adjustment since I retired in 2020. I mean "Hey, why am I forcing myself to pay mega $ for that ugly thing? (e.g. 1960 Roger Maris, 1961 Willie Mays) There are better cards/places on which to spend my money." Yeah, yeah, I guess I won't complete any of those Baseball sets but so what?
