1971 Topps in near mint took me 11 years with some dormant periods. I finished it 2 months ago and now I'm like a wild beast buying cards from all eras. I feel like a great weight was lifted...

Not sure exactly how many years it took, but I finished my 1979 Topps baseball set a few years ago. I decided to finish at least one set that I started when I was a kid. So I took the cards that I had from opening packs in 1979 and put my checklist together old school. Pen & paper

After attending a few card shows, my set was complete. Ironically the majority of the missing cards that I needed were checklists. I also had to replace my original checklists since I had marked off the cards I had back in 1979.

So I guess the answer to your question is about 3 decades.

Three seconds. It was the Rice Stix, two card set, bought both in one auction. It's the only "complete set" that I have.

WOW that's great progress Brendan.

I hope to get in the 500s someday!

I started in 2013 and sitting at 371/524

My goal was to get to 400 by the end of this year but with certain circumstances that has popped up I doubt I'll be making any progress anytime soon.
