[QUOTE="sith-smith, post: 530948, member: 43"] The problem with going for the rare items first, is that they are termed rare for a reason and so it is unlikely, depending on degree of rarity, that the rares could be bought first. Unless of course you just didn't buy anything until you had all the rare. Rare does not also equate to more expensive. That's more down to demand, the depth of the pockets and willingness to dig deep. There are many 45a for example that are rarer than that 21b. But when they were sold the demand and type of demand was not there, so the price didn't reach the same level. Also rarity changes, not just from time to time, but from person to person. This is because so much of our understanding of rarity comes from collectors' own, personal experience. All anyone can give you is what their experience is. And that's never likely to be absolute.
