The reconstructing of my want list is coming along, although it's a slow process. My decision to add names and make it more complete (I'm finding out already how much stuff I was missing) is adding to the length it will take to finish. So, for incoming packages at the moment, my binders are my want list. Do I have this card? I have to go to the binders to find out. This is also a lengthy process and can be particularly lengthy when you get a large box of cards, or what John of Johnny's Trading Spot , calls a "card dump". John dumped a bunch of Dodgers on me once again recently and wondered how many of those 300-or-so cards I actually needed. One? Two? Three? Four? The last card dump from John I calculated how many of the cards I needed and came up with 13 percent, which is actually quite good for a dedicated team collector. I don't know the percentage of what I needed this time. Like I said, it was a long process and I can't be doing math, too....
Up all hours talking baseball, cardboard & collecting
