Would you sell your entire PC for one holy grail card?

[Coopz05]

I think about this a lot. Would you sell your entire PC for the one Holy Grail card you never thought you would ever own?

For me that holy grail is a Kobe Bryant Chrome RC Refractor (lower end of the price scale) or a Kobe Bryant PMG (Red or Green)

I think about it a lot. Getting that one cerntrepiece and starting again from there.

In the end I normally decide against it because:
1. The time and effort gone into collecting the ones I do have.
2. The chances of actually breaking even or profiting from my PC are zero since Panini has flooded the market. (my $800-$900 1/1s would be lucky to fetch $300 now)
3. The exorbanent fees I would get slogged from eBay to complete the sales.

But what do others think?

A) would you do it for that one card youve always dreamt of?
B) what is that one card?

Lets try and keep it within possibility. Everyones PC would be worth different levels obviously.

For example, I don't want to see, "Yeh I'd sell my set of 1993-94 UD Triple Doubles for an MJ Fleer 1986 RC BGS 10."

Yes, I had that same thought before.

Problem for me is that my holy grail only comes up for sale once every 5 years or so. So it is the very much the Chicken and Egg dilemma. Do I sell up my entire collection first to raise the money and buy it when my collection is sold - problem here once I have sold everything, I play a waiting game for my holy grail to come up which could be eternity. On the flip side, I could buy my holy grail first with a loan (off course) and then slowly sell off my cards to re-pay back the loan, and get hit with all the interest charges on the loan. Either way, I'm smashed!!!!

No I wouldn't.

I'd add the Kobe to my collection.

I don't think I could be bothered to sell my entire collection for one card. It was an effort in itself to get it to where it is today and it would take the same amount of effort to sell it off.

If it was a trade then definitely!!

Not really, I have my holy grail already incoming lol

 

[Cobretti]

no one card does it for me.

I don't think I would because I've worked hard to get my PC's to where they are. That being said, I something's think I've like to cut down to have just 1 PC which I super collect, which would be my Aminu PC. I can never do it tho as I wouldn't part with my Kemp PC which I've had since I was a kid. I often think about just moving all the non-pc related items I can, and maybe moving a majority of my Drummond PC.
