Set builders: when u give up?

[r2d2]

Never

One of the great things about this hobby is you don't know when you will find the card you are looking for.

That is a crazy hard set, 71 is very impressive

Thanks! Best regards, David

Never give up! I've got many white whales I'm searching for (not literally, don't care for TTT).

If you don't know exactly what you're getting in to from the start, it's understandable to part it out and put those funds towards something better.

Never give up.

I just recently completed a lifelong project of completing all of the base Topps sets from 1970 thru 2015. I n addition, I have been working on all of the base Donruss, Fleer, Upper Deck, Leaf, Ultra and Score sets. Of all of those sets from 1981 thru 2005 (2009 for UD), I am only needing 2 more cards.

2001 Donruss : #159 (Ben Sheets buyback #/500)

2004 Leaf Second Edition: #195 (Bonds)

Even though these are brutally tough, I never give up. One buyback of a last minute replacement in the Donruss set, and one extremely SP due to contract issues with Bonds in 2004.

By the way, if anyone knows where either of these are, I have a lot to trade and would buy for a reasonable price.

Don't give up. Just take a breather and re-group.
