I would love to have
SW copies of all the rare items and even some or most of the uncommon items that I collect. At least those that originally came in
SW anyway.
Like many others here, I normally consentrate on First Edition D&D and First Edition TSR items. I do not ever intend to be a re-seller, so I try to obtain the best copy of each item so that I will not have to go back to E-Bay so many times looking to upgrade.
That said, I still do not hesitate overlymuch to look for less than
SW, or less than Mint items either, especially since my collection is so full of holes that I am really not too picky all the time.
Plus when purchasing larger lots, there will always be a few items that were basically trashed by some previous owner, so having some low grade items is unavoidable if like me you sometimes obtain larger lots.
Eventually I will have a trash sell on E-Bay to empty my poor overloaded bookcases of those particular items.
