i collected as a kid starting in 1980. i have quite a few boxes of them. they were quite different back then, card companies were making less cards so the good ones that you got (rookies for todays legends) were/are actually worth something.
today card companies make far too many of the cards so they're not worth shit, and way more expensive then they have to be.
i no longer know the prices to any of the cards i've got off the top of my head but i remember years ago my complete set for 1991 fleer cards, which included some extremely rare mix-up card was worth 80 bucks.
i'm going to give my set of cards to my son (someday when i have one) and i've been buying packs of cards here and there to my two nephews for a little over 2 years now. i'm keeping them unopened and will start giving them to the boys on their 5th birthdays.
although, one of the boys is going a different direction already from sports so i think they'll all be going to the other nephew.
