Makes sense. But it was 1k over mixed years from 74-85. So probably 100 maybe from 85 Topps. But I get what you're saying. Will probably just pull the stars and HOFers and toss all the others. Getting the same vibe from the early 1980s as well.

Like I've got probably 200 different 1982 Donruss as well as about the same amount of 1982 Topps. So I was thinking about doing the set. But you can buy the entire set of each for probably $40 apiece. It would cost more to build the set. So may do the same. Keep the stars/HOfers and toss the commons. I threw out probably 25k cards from 1980s-2015 this past spring. Was so nice to get rid of stuff like that.

At $50, for 792 cards, that is 6 cents a card, including all the stars and the rookies.

I don’t think there is much of a market for non minty commons. There’s tons of complete sets available for less to the set collectors. It just doesn’t make sense to pay $100 for 1,000 non mint commons when you can get a NR-MT type complete set for $50.
