@@geezmikey it was at one point but I had to sell it for different reasons like pay off my bills before I moved.

Restarted it again but sold it to a card shop which I think I got taken for. Sold it for $200 cuz I had no money in Las Vegas to get back home.

@@geezmikey I'm trying to build it any way I can :) I'm about 85 % complete at the moment. I bought a starter set on ebay (around 200 cards) and have been adding here and there at card shows/shops and on ebay. Currently working on ALL of the sets up to 1980. I'm finished with 1954 and 1969 and getting pretty close on everything in the 1950's. . I have a TON of duplicates(around 4000 cards from1952-1980). Let me know if you ever want to help each other out! I need a lot of el-bencho's to fill my sets!! Keep up the great vids and good luck.

Hey, great going on getting more of the '52 Topps! Regarding your retiring, are you giving up collecting? I know you're married and may be a little busier than you have been in the past, but I'm thinking you don't have to leave KZbin completely. Just make a video every now and then as the spirit moves you, taking as much time as you need in between episodes. Why leave the community completely? Anyway, it's your decision. All the best to you always, whatever you decide!
