I bought packs from 1970 (a few) through 1976. Then stopped. Picked up the hobby in 1989 and got into prewar but also finished the sets i had started 1971-1976. I would buy packs today if they were carried in my local stores and if i know which was the base set kids are interested in today. Way too much choice for me. I have only bought the newer cards of players i love (like deGrom…though i cant even identify what the set is that the cards are in).

I stopped in 2019 when I realized it was a waste of my money. Now I focus mostly on vintage, and for modern cards stick to dime boxes.
My dad stopped in 1973, and bought packs for a while in 1990.

1996...was setting up a bit and was basically tripling my $ on any mantles pulled. I guess when I lived in HI I bought a ton of packs in 1998 too...but that was because there wasn't a ton other stuff to do there....none since.
