Very mixed. My goals were:
1) finish the E94 master set of all colors of all players. I did manage to pick up 3 of my final 10 in the past year but got sniped on a red Bates on ebay which was a real downer. E94s are tough to find in any color, any player but I see why my final 7 are my final 7: they're next to impossible! It's not a question of money and being outbid, they just don't appear. Plus one of my 7 is the violet Murray and I know a zillion guys after that one because of violetmania. 2) Make a huge dent in the T210 set. I managed to almost complete series 1,2,3 and 5 and am close on 8 but 4,6 and 7 remain problems as there is so much competition for those 3 series. I'll keep plugging along. 3) Finish the George Miller set. Picked up some but still need a handful. 4) Put together the sets from my youth- 1958-1962 Topps. I put together the 58, 60 and 61 sets and bought a complete 59 set at auction and upgraded it. Ready to start the 62 now, so this was close to being completed. 5) Pick up some Black Swamp Finds to add to my E98s. Done. 6) Upgrade my 4 Obak sets- done. 7) Stay away from OJs, Cracker Jacks and Goudeys because I am a set guy and completing the first is impossible, the second too difficult and the third I just don't want to.

Mike aka Freakhappy- Nice to see the Goudey set moving along. I haven't really been moving on that set lately. Maybe because you have been snagging them all up haha. But good job man on the others.
keith aka drmondobueno's- Sorry to hear bout your loss. But great to hear that the collection is doing well. I will keep an eye out for that Gibson/Leach for ya though never know. I like to keep a list of stuff I know people are looking for. Never know when I may see something and say i think so and so was looking for that. Then i will pick it up. steve aka shernan30- I have seen the progress on the OJ's and gotta say it sure has been a buying year for ya. If you ever want to unload some of those 34 Goudeys to get some extra $$$ to buy lmk haha. josh aka wite3- I love that T205 set wish I never sold my partial set years back oh well. Congrats on your progress and hope you can catch some of those Phillies . John aka nebboy- Next year you will have to def put bigger goals haha. But congrats on your pick ups. Some pricey ones for sure. tbob- Been busy and buying a ton. Congrats on the sets. Can't wait to see what comes in the future.

I'm doing well in 2014. I came out strong and am coasting in to the end of the year. I still need to pick-up roughly 5 T206, 4 33 Goudeys, and some upgrades as they become available. I've added a few cards I've been after for awhile including my first Cy Young T206, some low number Goudeys, and have added a few N300s.
My biggest pick-up is coming in December as my wife and I are expecting our 3rd.
