Unfortunately, considering getting completely 100% out. Advice/thoughts?

Dan, the only thing I will say is that you should do whatever leaves you with no regrets. Be 100% sure you are making the right decision for you at the time (it sounds like you are and like you have really thought this out) and then move on knowing you did the right thing because you wanted to do it. Plus, the cardboard will always be there waiting for you to start over again if things change. Leon mentioned that liquidating wasn't as hard as he thought it would be, so there is hope.

I look forward to seeing what your Stainless Steel Cobb brings!

One thing that might help here: if you have bulk newer cards you could donate them and write the loss of against your sales. I have a bunch of stuff from the 80s and 90s that I had been planning to dump, but given that I bought all of it a pack at a time I could probably claim a pretty huge loss against the sale of the rest of my collection (if I ever decide to sell it) if I was willing to look up pack prices and do a little math.
