[QUOTE="gbroke, post: 1670632, member: 22585"]I think it's hard to stick to a plan. At least for me it was. I started with sheer volume. Buying many Danscos and trying to fill them up. Then I fell in love with toners. Then I decided I want to finish my Dansco 7070 type set with all higher grade toners and thin out the hoard, except for My Jeffersons. Then a problem with my plan came into play. I see beautiful coins that I would love to have, or amazing deals, even though I already have it in the type set. How can I Sophie's choice my toners or other coins I connect with? I can't. :( I can't even tell you how many times I have listed a coin for sale, and then the next day removed the listing because I couldn't bear to not have it in my collection. Even if I have 12 other ones of that type. So my point is... do you really need a plan? Planning, thinking about values, and all that takes away from the enjoyment of the hobby. For me at least. Don't get me wrong, a goal is nice to have, but it's not for everyone I suppose. Either way, happy collecting! -g[/QUOTE]
