2013 Collecting Goal Thread: http://www.net54baseball.com/showthread.php?t=160011

Nelson, it looks like you changed course!

I far exceeded my 2013 goals, picking up 12 E105s and the Smith's Mello Mint gum wrapper. I don't expect to pick up any more this year.

For 2014, I will just repeat last year's goal: plan for another awesome Chicago Cleveland National and slowly pick up another E105 or two between now and then.

My only goal last year was to pick up some more cards from my wantlists. That is just luck of the draw, but I did make some headway. I also picked up a lot of stuff I didn't know I wanted until I saw it. For 2014 I'd like to do less of the latter.

Start a secret initiative, oh and add some more old junk to the pile.

I need a T215 Red Cross Merkle.

And I expect to find many other cards that I will want as soon as I see them.

Great thread idea. I'm finally at a place in life that will allow me to finish my base Topps Clemente set. (finished paying off student loans about a month ago so that will free up a lot of money)

Other than that--T206 Walter Johnson cards are some of my favorites in the industry. I'd love to snag a couple of mid grade Walters for the shelf.

Good luck and happy hunting.

Undeniable Success! At >75% and have the Cobb Red Portrait

Partial Success... got to ~80, but then sold them all. Unfortunately for me, the hype on EPDG died before my cards hit the auction market.

Complete failure. Gave up early in the year and consigned them away. Lesson learned: stay focused with two or fewer goals.

So... for 2014, keeping it simple:
Get to 85% in my SGC 40 T206 collection and include a second Cobb.

Yep Daryl my interest change in 2013. But in my 2013 goals , the Magie was a goal and i bought a Magie in 2013.

The Lajoie is also a card i always wanted so at the beggining of 2013 the Lajoie wasn't in my mind but things change during the year !

I am verry happy of my 2013 collecting year !
