Default . . . 18 years ago, I was once where you are now, and I did sell

.

sold nearly every one of my vintage star cards (T206 through 1949 Leaf) plus dozens of mint Brett and Yount rookie cards (taken directly from vendor boxes). Kept the EX T206 Red Background Cobb and afew Detroit Scrapps. I didn't need the $15,000 cash generated from the sale, but got tired (burnt-out) from the constant searching. Never took time to really enjoy them. Got into vintage autographs afew years later, but I still regret my decision to sell my vintage cards to this day. Collection nothing to brag about, but it had it merits, and most importantly, it was mine, as were the varying stories (and people) associated with how each card was obtained. I should have just carefully packed them away, and gone back to them later. Personally think a one year cooling period is more than reasonable. Steve, you might be extremely grateful for doing so.
