Resisting T206--has anyone here done it successfully?

About a year ago, I gave up on trying to do the set in psa 8 or better. At a minimum of $500 per card for commons, it was just too expensive.
When I stopped I was at 157 psa 8s, 5 9s and a handful of 7s.

Since then I am amazed at what buyers are willing to pay. Pop 1 psa 8 commons are fetching over $5,000 and pop 2s $3,500. My psa 9 Tinker got over $15,000. Selling these has been a good way to finance the completion of my 33 Goudey Sport Kings, 34 Goudey and 34 Diamond King sets as I cannot do them all in 8 or better.
