I voted "still have them and actively collect" although that is only partially true.
I did consolidate all my 80's and 90's into two 3200 ct boxes about 4 years ago. Sold for practically nothing about eight 3200 ct boxes of cards that didn't make it into my two "keeper" boxes. I've been collecting almost exclusively in the 1900-1979 period since I returned from a 12 year hiatus 5 years ago, I figured I may not open those two keeper boxes until I had a grandson who showed some interest - that'll be a while since my 2 daughters are 18 and 15.
However, seeing Ben's thread mentioned above caused me to open those boxes early to see what was in there.
I've since decided to extend my topps/bowman 48-79 HOF base card run into the 80's and 90's. Topps, Fleer, Donruss, Score, Bowman, Upper Deck for the 80's and Topps and a variety of my favorite sets for the 90's. There are dozens of great looking sets in the 90's in my opinion.
Within the last month, I've added about 1500 80's and 90's hof/star cards to my collection and I sure have enjoyed doing it and having the cards.
