At a certain point it just seems like overkill. <br /><br />But to Night Owl's point: I collect the good players, and there have been a lot of good players. So I guess I do go for quantity, I just spread it out.

But the older I get, the more I like to trim the collecting fat here adn there. I just think it's a little weird when hobby people get so excited about selling off their cards.night owlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11673973790245316059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6673889727117377790.post-16070889540677761522021-04-01T06:55:23.435-07:002021-04-01T06:55:23.435-07:00I am a quantity guy, but only because I can't ...I am a quantity guy, but only because I can't afford the quality.
