If you came across some extra dough...

Would you increase the quality or quantity of your collection i.e. buy a couple keystone cards or hoard more lots, partial sets, etc.???

For me, the "smarter" thing would be to buy a few keepers but the more exciting thing would be to spread out the wealth and buy a larger spread of stuff

I've pretty much reached my goals, so I would look for some really special items. Perhaps a T206 Walter Johnson with a Red Hindu back, for example.

Oh, that sounds nice.

I've got a Birthday coming up.

I would also like a Rose Co WaJo, and a Bender Drum.

Now that's a nice card.

I'd do the same, a few key cards....Plank, Cobb Lenox/RH or a really top shelf error.

I tend to be more of a quantity guy. For me, overall, having ten $100 cards is way more fun than having one $1k card..... but I realize I may be in the minority on this one.

Would add an E121-80 Ruth

[HOF Yankees]

spread it around to the 4 T206 Cobbs, E95 Philly Caramel Cobb and last but not least Allen and Ginter N28 Comiskey

I say that I prefer this method but I'm not sure if it is just the fact that I never save up enough money to buy something really nice.

If I just happened to find some money, I'd like to put together some relatively inexpensive set, something not too easy, but not impossible. I like the design of the C46 cards and only have one, so maybe that set

[Cardboard Junkie]

I think I would shoot for an E90-1 Jackson in vg+

[TheBig6]

1880's major league team cabinet

[rainier2004]

t200 set! Then design/build a display! Then make room for it on the wall. Then hang it and put back up the stuff I took down to make room for it. Then spend all day looking at it...Im ready for my money now.

I think you should increase quantity. Commons going from $.50 to $1 each means you doubled, and you could buy a couple thousand nice commons pretty solid priced atm. Quality is pretty surefire but will only be 20-30-50%, commons could be much better on a per card basis for what is there.

Define "some extra money". Are you talking about a few thousand (ie 3K - 5K) or (30K - 50 K) or (300K - 500K) ?

Pat, I am a quality guy, so if it was found money, I would by myself something really special, that I wouldn't normally spend the money on.

[drmondobueno]

A Magie would be nice, a Plank would be excellent, a.... I woud settle for completing the Monster (518, that is...). Free up cash for chasing high end 201's....build a few bamboo rods, "eat a lot of peaches..." . I guess the wife would want me to replace my old wheels...nah, will take the Magie or Plank...

[Paul S]

Key card(s). I'll figure it out when the time comes Right now I am satisfied with my ubiquitous HOFer flotsam and jetsam. I'd want something(s) high dollar cool that I normally couldn't afford.
