Would you want to buy a complete vintage set?

let say you have 35 left on your monster set, and someone happens to have all 35? would you then buy them all and not hunt them one or two at a time? what number would you pull the trigger and buy them all or not buy them all if they all became available from someone at once and it completed your set? 10, 20, 50, 100?

If I had the coin,,, I'd already own that E107 set.

Buy it. Pull out what you want and sell the rest.

If I needed 35 and someone had those 35, it's unlikely that all 35 would meet my collection requirements. If a few did, I'd buy them and sell the undesirables.

But I see what you're getting at. If 10 met my requirements, at a really good price that I could afford, I'd do it. If all 35? Not sure. It would definitely take the fun out of it, but by the time you get to only needing 35, you might be worn out and ready to be done with it.

If I had the money I would buy a complete set and then work on upgrading it to keep the thrill of the hunt alive. Also, there are so many sets to collect I would still be working on plenty others a few at a time.
