But as I said, guess I'll be doing something else. Was just looking to help fellow collectors out by making them available if anyone was working on sets. And yes, people still do build sets. I'm a set builder.

It's more fun to bust 50 cent packs and $8 boxes and trade for stuff you need over going to the LCS and plopping down $50 for a 1985 Topps set or even $25 for a 1987 Topps set.
If it is a key rookie like Ripken or even McGwire, then yes pull it. If it is gradeable, then get it graded. Pull out whatever key cards you want to save. Then, its up to you what you want to do with the rest: recycle, burn, giveaway at Halloween, etc.. Like everybody else has said, a flat rate box full of cards might not sell for hardly anything and a 3000-3200 count box sometimes will barely get $10.00.
