I answered 100-500 because I'm currently just over 100 slabs. If I were to add the vintage unopened part of my collection it would total over ten thousand cards easily.
I've actually toyed with the idea for several years of paring down everything I collect (slabs, packs, boxes, memorabilia, toys, art, posters, etc.) to just 100 of my best pieces, selling the rest, and then every time I add/upgrade a piece in the collection I'd sell a piece to maintain that hundred item count. Do this for enough years and I think anyone on any budget could build an amazing collection, quality wise. I've obviously never followed through with that. I think it's an interesting idea and at 100 items the collection wouldn't seem to sparse or big to me. Who knows, maybe someday I'll give it a try.
