Secret on how to do this courtesy of the "Medici of Mets collectors", Andy Fogel.

Thru the years Andy's nickname has changed from the "GodFather of Mets collectors" to "the Source" (think Fortunoff the store).

Like his collection his moniker is forever evolving :D

That is awesome, I certainly can't compete with that but even with what I try to pick up I don't think I could start all over again! He's 100% right about not being able to get it "all". Enjoy your pickups, enjoy others' pickups. If you need something by all means go after it but if you don't really need it let someone else enjoy it.

Now who wants to sell me a Pittsburgh Pipers warmup!!! :-)
