Not pre-war...and not even baseball, but I have 411 1989-90 Topps Pierre Turgeon cards. I honestly do not know why.

Not cards, but I guess it's close to the subject....

Default Its called OCD

I've never seen an '89 UD Griffey or '90 Leaf Frank Thomas in mint condition I don't own. Those were the biggest cards of my youth and when I see one for $5-$10 I buy it. Probably own 20-30 of each. There's no explaining it, and it makes no sense, but whatever. The rest of you should probably seek therapy asap, lol! Step 1, give one away to a stranger

I have over 3,000 Omar Vizquel rookies, but I could have sworn that was investing. Someone bought a ton of 1989 Topps Traded sets, pulled the Griffey's and probably trashed 120 of the cards and sold off some rookies and stars for real cheap. I think I got them about eight cents each.

I also attempted a T204 set, but gave up after I bought the same card six times. Could never remember the only player I had...

That Is too funny. My only vice regarding hoarding is collecting off center T201 cards. I have this fantasy that if I get enough off center mis-cut 2 player cards, i will be able to figure out what an entire print sheet looks like. I have about 125 cards now.

Don't ask me why I do it. I am taking pills for this addiction and moving to stronger medication shortly.

Wow. This thread is hilarious. I think I have two doubles in my entire collection and they drive me crazy on a daily basis.
