Default How many different cards do you own?

In my trading group, we have a fun competition about how many different cards someone owns. The only rule is that you can't count multiple copies of the same card (Example, if you own 10 1933 Goudey Bengoughs, card 1, that would only count once).

How many do you own (if you know)? I own over 5,000 cards.

After selling off most of my vintage cards, I probably still have around 3K, but most are PostWW2. Probably, four or five times that in '81-present issues (the true addiction portion).

5,000? 7,000?

Hard to say really. The bulk would be junk wax era from pack pulls as a kid that I still have in a 3,200 count box (and smaller ones) in the closet.

The bulk of my collection that I care about today (vintage stars, and sets I'm working on) is much smaller - maybe less than 1500 cards.

If you count all the junk wax, probably about 5,000. If you just count the ones I've picked up in the years since I discovered eBay and Net54, probably about 800.

rough guesstimate:

pre-war - 750
post-war vintage - 250
modern (mostly late '80s from childhood) - 5k

I haven't counted since maybe 1974...

I'm thinking around 50,000, maybe more.
