I voted for a high grade star card.

I am not a set collector but always like quality cards from specific sets.

Low grade quantity over quality
Especially if it’s a t206 set, or 1933 goudey your set

For me it would really depend on the specific set. For common sets like the 34 Goudey in the example I would lean toward a high grade single card. But a rare, difficult, or seldom completed set such as E105, E107, E104-3, T222, N167, etc I would take the set in a heartbeat.

I went with the set. In vintage cards condition is very low on my priority list. The only thing lower would be centering.

+1

For me, it would also depend on how low grade we're talking about. If it's a VG set that's one thing....but if it's a PR-GD set, then that would change things.

Quality over quantity for me, without hesitation.

I’d choose the high grade blue chip.
