A few times. I started out as a set builder and PCd Mike Modano. A few years later I added Rusty Klesla to my PC pursuits. I would start sets, never finish, and begin again next release year. I got burned out trying to keep it all together and felt like I was just chasing cards for the PC. Stepped away from the hobby for many years.
Came back about five years ago, started my Modano and Klesla PC again. Started set building UD MVP and UD S1 & S2. Only did that for about two years due to not truly being interested in what the products were offering. Started a new player PC, Elvis Merzlikins, but was only interested in rookie year stuff and autos. I went back to junk wax to build earlier Topps and UD sets of hockey and baseball and have really enjoyed that approach. Started a WNBA PC for Kamilla Cardoso as well. My current collecting habits are more focused than when I did it many years ago. If I miss something, that's okay, I don't dwell on it too much.
