Horders?
Today I just picked up my 9th 1933 Goudey Earl Averill for no reason other than I had not picked one up in a while. Any other collectors hording a particular card?

At what point does collecting a player become hoarding? I'd say you are still good with Averill because it is a fairly common card. You can still get 26 of them on ebay right now, so you are just collecting. I think it becomes hoarding when you buy every card that comes up of a particular player/set.

I use to buy every 1953 Glendale Hot dog card I could find.
Seemed like they had everything going for them. Regional issue. Required to be sent back to enter a contest. Tigers! Ended up with about 200 of them. Sold them to Charlie Conlon of Ypsi. Houtteman IS TUFF! |

Sort of a Ganley hoarder.
I've been working on a back run and upgrading as I go. I'm too busy to sell cards so I've inadvertently hoarded Ganley.

Last one I needed for the subset, upgraded a few times. No particular reason to keep them.
