2013 Collecting Goals
Saw this in the baseball forum...What are your collecting goals for 2013?
1) Downsize football collection. Really. I have already started reining in my focus. Rookie autos and vintage rookies before 1988.
2) Same as above but for baseball HOFers.
3) Organize
4) I'm going after Topps Magic. Will be buying a case or two with holiday bonus and proceeds from the bay. I wish Threads was coming out though........
Tell us your goals!

RE: 2013 Collecting Goals
1) Stop buying so much crap (aka boxes)... start on good deal singles. Hell, wife let's me spend around $200 a month, I'm sure I could buy some nice Peyton Manning stuff for $200 a month.

I'm not fond of wasting my time with folks who can't bother replying to trades or pms. If I don't reply, you're probably on the ignore list.

RE: 2013 Collecting Goals
I don't really have any goals in mind. Just going to keep plugging away until I have a Bengals and Carson Palmer collection I can be proud of. No rush, just enjoying the build. Hopefully, one day I can stand toe-to-toe with the big dogs we have here on Beckett...
Currently collect: NON-SERIAL NUMBERED autos, Topps, and Topps Chrome cards of players in Bengals uniforms.
