What do you do with 1985 to 1992 cards?

Five or so years ago, I cleared out about fifty thousand cards (mostly post-1980, but really a bit of everything, with a smattering of pre-1970). I just took it to a local card shop and gave it to him. In exchange for him taking if off my hands, I only removed the Blue Jays cards (except from complete sets) and figured that way he could pick though and make a bit of money in exchange for taking it off of my hands.

More recently, I've started to piece together some Blue Jays team sets from that era and could actually be using a good amount of that stuff as trade-bait.

Obviously in my case I knew there was a chance I'd get back into collecting something modern. If there's even a slight chance you might do that, and you have the space, I'd say just keep 'em in storage. If they gotta go, though, I may be interested in the Jays cards!

Cheers,

Richard.

I have recently taken all the boxes from my parent's home (they were nice enough to let me keep them there when I moved out and got married). My 3 year old daughter automatically assumed that they were all hers. I have been going through the boxes and trying to organize by teams. If I find an error card I sort it out for myself and if I find a card that is in less than NM condition I make a stack for my 3 year old. She has enjoyed playing with the cards (and sharing with her siblings).

After the recent post about COMC, though, I have been thinking of sending all the inserts their way.
