14 Brett and Yount rookies that wouldn't grade over a 7. Made me sick.
Newer cards may hold up better, but my older cards didn't. Don't know if
its the part of the country but I took all my cards out of binders and tossed them.

How did you have them stored? Never heard of cards getting broke down by just sitting in binders. Makes me a little scared! I have 1953-1979 Topps sets in binders and 1950-1955 Bowman as well.

+1. Yikes! Same here (although not as extensive)

I have 1970-2015 Topps and 1996 -2015 Topps Chrome Refractors including all the colors in binders. I am still working on many of the colored refractor sets, but I haven't noticed any cards breaking down. I guess I should check them all again.
