It has been 15 years since I completed a set. 2005 Donruss was the last time that I put a set together through trades and pack busting. Since then I have had little desire to attempt anything with all the short prints and variations needed to complete a set.
My son rekindled my set building fire last Christmas after receiving 3 blasters of 2019 Topps Fire. He loves the design and thought it would be neat to get them all. It is a 200 card set with no short prints, so I was game. We have needed the last 4 cards for a few weeks. I was lucky enough to find a Sportlots seller who had all of them for $2.22 delivered.
Awhile back when I was filing away the Pete Alonso RC from this set, I did a check to make sure what I was missing. Good thing I did because I found out I was missing the Seager card.
I was guessing the Acuna would be the last card I needed. There have been quite a few on EBAY, but I did not want to pay $3-4 for the card. Now that the set is done, we will spend a little time this weekend flipping through the cards.
