I find a common set like T206 to be boring. If all that stands between me and the cards is money, it isn't fun for me. I prefer cards that rarely come up for sale, the sort of card that I am fortunate to own in any condition. That's where the fun is for me.

I collect signed lineup cards by HOF managers. It's not a set, but has a lot of similarities to what you mention: the focus is obscure and it can be months between finding something relevant.
I think there is a trade-off here. There's an excitement and communal aspect to collecting things that others are also chasing. At the same time, it is a lot of fun sharing what I collect and educating people who are curious.
