2024 will be my first real year of collecting (I started right at the end of 2023) so I've got fairly modest goals compared to those of you who have been collecting for years or even decades. My goals:
- Collect 100 unique cards for any one player (the most I have for one player right now is ~20)
- Collect 1,000 unique Twins cards (currently have ~750)
- Complete 1988 Topps set (this is probably the most ambitious goal on my list, as I'm only at ~13% on that set)
- Complete 50 trades (this would be about a trade a week, which is also ambitious, but I have confidence in myself)
All in all, I think these goals are reasonable, and I want to try to complete as many of them as I can with trades or small purchases from TCDb members rather than buying cards off eBay or other places. I've already spent a lot on cards this year and we're only a month in.
New collector. College student so I'm sometimes slow in replying to transaction proposals. Go Twins!
