I will start by saying a while back I deleted over 130,000 Cards and started over. I am pretty organized but just had some reasons for doing it. I like the fact that I have 5931 Cards to trade and only 1817 on my Want List. I put numbered and parallels out there to trade of things I don't collect. Recently I started throwing some of those on my Wants, just to try and gain a good Card for mine. This came up on another site last night but oddly when it comes to Relics and Autos I just keep what I pull. When the occasion just falls in my lap I would trade for a PC, but generally I just feel like that is my Card if I pull it. Relics and Autos just make me feel a bigger part of the game.
I don't post a lot, but this is just something I wanted to put out there. This scenario also makes me feel comfortable if someone makes a lopsided offer or what I deem as something I would not want to pursue. Being heavy on the Trade List, I don't mind exploring theirs to find something I feel better about in trading. I feel like if I get something of interest, I still have plenty left to hopefully obtain my Wants down the road. I am a Set completer and along with that comes the Inserts, most of the time. When I stumble across a Team Set I am pursuing, and I am going down the Checklist I will mark a random Card of a PC player also.
Anyway, I have rambled on plenty. I just wanted to share a few thoughts on my collecting style. My Profile will be updated to reflect my Football interests soon. Hockey would be Nashville Predators, but I really know nothing of Hockey.
