I always enjoy finding out tidbits, like how tough Ricky Wright is. He has at least 1 Dodger card I wouldn't mind having signed, but I don't plan to spend $56 on an 83F! Dcameron99 writes some interesting descriptions and I sometimes read them just to learn about obscure players.
It is frustrating to try to complete a certain set or subset and find you need someone you have never heard of or would think should be as easy as they get, but often we find the obscure ones can be thew toughest.
I just learned from Ron Kittle directly that he only signs his 1984 Topps card for charity, a $25 donation! Just about every other Kittle card can be had for a few bucks signed, but not the one card I need for my Trophy set!!! I have not broke down yet, but I may someday as I get closer to completion!
