I think 100 copies of a single card is called a "superhoarder"!

By the way, if one chooses to hide his collection, his cards won't appear in the player's collector charts and he still can have more cards than others without being listed on that chart.
Also, I am not of a Facebook fan neither and the 250 cards is pretty arbitrary. They can do whatever they want, but it would be more logical to require a % instead of a number of card. Ripken or Gretzky have thousands of cards, but if one super-collects a journeyman with 200 cards in a 20 year career, the 250 card requirement doesn't make sense, especially if he already collected, let's say, 150 or 180 on 200.

I have a number of players I collect that meet the numbers or I have a good percentage. I am curious the group's take on artificial scarcity, variations, and buybacks. I find they frustrate my inner OCD and try to ignore them for most of the players I collect. Here are my numbers, including in transit, in transaction, and cards not in TCDB.

" Does over 20,000 unique Blue Jays cards qualify? "
Very impressive! I'm almost at 8K Dbacks but it's slow going.

Wow I make it on a lot of guys across all 3 sports but these are my favorite top 3:
1. Frank Thomas 1900
2. Doug Wilson 403
3. Three Stooges 641
-------------------------------
Always looking for Blackhawk hockey, Notre Dame Football, White Sox and Bears Stuff. I have a plaque in my card room that says, "I could have been a millionaire but my mom threw out my baseball cards". How apropos!!! Collecting Chicago Blackhawks Hockey, Doug Wilson Hockey, Chicago Bears Older, Notre Dame Football in their college jerseys and Chicago White Sox.

Hey, thanks for the mention! You completely nailed it. I'm a team collector, which means I'll grab whatever I can of that team when it's reasonable, but for the super collecting, I'm trying to get one of every single card of that player released (excluding 1/1s). For players with more than a few hundred cards, that's a really tall task, but it's about the joy of the journey and the small wins along the way!

Seems like I would fit the criteria given by most members here as a Super Collector for Matt Kenseth. I currently have over 2200 different cards for him with a goal to get one of every card he ever had (1/1's included, although know that will be realistically impossible). I am currently nearing 50% with over 500 Memorabilia cards and over 225 Autograph cards (some are AU and MEM on same card though). Within my collection is 1,100+ SN cards. None of this counts the numerous diecasts, bobble heads, random memorabilia items, hero cards, t-shirts, and other collectibles.
Never thought about it, but yeah, I guess I could be classified as a Super Collector.
-------------------------------
Over 2,200 different Matt Kenseth cards collected. Almost at 50% and getting ever closer to 100% completion goal.

Sometimes it can't be helped. When I decided to add my Gerald Perry cards to the site, it was because I had the most (around 200) for a particular book I had to make room for. When I went to add them, it turned out 150 of those were from 1989 Donruss. Now I know how this happened, during the pandemic I bought some ex-dealer collections and included 3 4-row boxes of 1989 Donruss that had on average around 100 of each card.
