I have a pretty sizeable card collection. Started when I was a kid with a paper route, somewhere around 1986 or so. By about 92 or 93, though, collecting fever was rampant and all the value in collecting disappeared. No way was I going to pay $5 a pack for cards that were going to end up valued at $4.50 total.

I can remember some of the steals I got, though. 1984 Topps FB (Elway/Marino rookies) full set for $10, 1989 Score (Barry, Aikman, etc.) full set $12.
I think I found a 1958 Bart Starr (2nd year) for $15 and have nearly every one of his cards.

I spent so many days flipping through binders full of cards. Good times.
