I'm sorting them. I've got about 20K commons from about 1985 to 2010. I'm going to either donate to a thrift store or try to sell on Facebook/Craigs List for $20 or so. They are just being compiled in boxes.
All the HOF'ers (or likely) and big stars (Murphy, Mattingly, etc...) I put in penny sleeves. I'm going to start doing card shows again this fall/next year. 5 cent box and 25 cent boxes.
I found 1000 71 Topps, including 300 high numbers, so I now have 2/3 of a 71 Topps set put together in VG condition.
I found another Bench rookie, Reggie rookie, Schmidt rookie and several hundred HOF'ers from the 60's and 70's I'd been looking for for a while.
Basically, when I'm done, all the crap will be gone, and the rest will be organized.
I'm about 1/3 of the way through everything. It's been kind of fun actually.
