Better to buy playsets or one of each?

I'm thinking about buying one of each Shockland, and then working on getting full playsets. I have the playset I need for my modern deck and I think in the future I will be building more EDH decks. So I am asking it is a good idea to get one of each now rather than playsets.
Plus, from here on out shocks are only going to rise in value. You'll just end up paying double later on compared to what you will now.

Many of the shock lands are cheap enough right now I would just buy play sets. They will only go up from here as they were so recently reprinted.

It's not usually difficult to trade for shocks from people who don't play modern. I'd definitely be sure you have a playset of each before much longer because as stated above they're only going up from here. If you're a baller go for the foils.

When people are trading with you, they often want playsets over singles. It's easier for them to get everything from 1 person, rather than from 3 or 4 different people.

I would just say find the best deals on full playsets. There isn't much reason to just buy one at a time unless you just want the collection aspect of having one of each.
