The former for me. Collecting was no fun simply to buy the cards, but rather to spend about 3x as much on packs to try to get the card yourself (i.e. me and 89 UD Griffey)! I admired the cards of the earlier 80s - Clemens, Boggs, Ripken but would never buy them for $50-100 if I could spend the same amount chasing Kevin Maas and Phil Plantier RCs.
