    It all comes down to: (1)Do you really WANT the set - AND - (2)How much would it cost to get it made into a complete set ??? If it doesn't bother you, then go ahead. However, it it does bother you some then let it go. In other words if you really want it then complete it, if not, then let it go.

    That is a big factor for most but he might just enjoy putting a $5 set together just like a $500 set.
    So much to ask:
    Do you have all the big stars here?
    Do you have the dollars or tradebait of what someone might want for the cards in trade or dollars?

    I still have more of the https://www.sportscardforum.com/thre...ght=basketball. I just shared the biggest partial set but had nore and sold another partial set the following month. Now to work on the final 3rd partial set that is smaller lol.

    ^^ This right here. ^^

    If it's a high end set or a vintage set, then no - the cost will probably make it prohibitive.

    If it's a modern-era retail-ish set (Hoops, Topps, Prizm, Select) then you just need the right trader/seller.

    You are just about 45% done already. As long as it isn't cost prohibitive to you, I say go for it and good luck in your chase!
