Default Putting together vintage sets

Have many collectors on this board stop trying to complete sets in the past few years because the cost of doing so got so ridiculous due to the rapid rise in card prices (especially certain HOFers)?

For example, if you started to put together a 33 Goudey set 20 years ago but figured on picking up the Ruths a little later (rather than 10-15 years ago), are you still trying to complete that set or have you just said no way.

Many of the 1950s and 1960s sets are still somewhat reasonable.

Which sets are still within reason to collect when you compare them to 5 years ago?

I still laugh when I think about the 1964 Topps Giant set. I can still remember when people were trying to get rid of them for $5 a set.
