I got started collecting as a kid in the late 80s and with the explosion of brands and sets in the 90s I never even considered set building. I would buy a pack or two of whatever was new on the shelf, occasionally, a hot insert, or a rookie that was exclusive to a set would keep me buying more. I didn't really get introduced to set collecting until the late 90s. I tried it a little but it's not something that has ever 'stuck' for me. I wonder if that is a generational thing driven by the era where I began collecting? Are more of the age 30-45 collectors than I realize set builders? It seems much more prevalent among those that got their start in the Topps dominated era.
