It's #1 for me, but I do prefer error cards that have a clearly noticeable variation from the correct version, and I collect both versions (or all 3 or 4 or whatever) so I can see the contrast. Error cards are one of the oldest narratives in the hobby, and there are notable examples from the very beginning all the way to 2006 Alex Gordon. One of my favorite ways to collect.

For me it’s a combination of 3 and 4, and maybe 2 if I am going to for a master set. Ultimately, everything I buy is for investment. I think the facts that a card is rare and necessary for a master set of a popular set (like t205) makes it a pretty good investment. I think Hoblitzell no stats is a great investment card for that reason. I think Magie error is a great card bc it’s the most famous error (after Billy Ripken F Face)

A combination of 2, 3 and 4. I've chased errors and variations ever since I became aware they existed,. If it was listed in the greatly-missed SCD book, I wanted it.

1) I have collected errors since I started collecting almost 40 years ago now. I love the fact they are different than the normal version. I love them all too. Errors they correct, wrong backs, black fronts/backs, and printing errors of any kind.
I have no idea of real value but you would have to pay me enough to buy a seriously nice ocean front property to give up my favorite error cards. I purchased a 1990 Score wrong back pair of my 2 favorite players directly from Score back in the day. Yes I have a Wade Boggs/Roger Clemens wrong back pair and they are by far my favorite possession.

PRIMARILY 1 and 2 for me - and YES, I spent plenty (for me) on a T205 Hoblitzell - No Stats...
I LOVE having a "Master Set" of T205s - tho I STILL need a Collins - Yellow Elephant... When I talk cards with people who "know cards" and tell them that I have a T205 set, INVARIABLY, they will ask, "Do you have The Hoblitzell - No Stats"??? And I can say "Yup, I do..." rather than, "No, but..."
