I voted yes but wouldn’t say I actively collect it. I buy occasional packs to open with kids and buy the occasional key rookies of modern players I like but on a very limited basis. 99% of hobby $ goes to vintage/pre war.

I occasionally add some modern Cubs for a diversion, but 95% of what I do is vintage. I also like the Topps Archives type things, and "cards that never were" creations. They don't scratch the itch like real vintage cards, but can be a nice and super cheap alternative when you are bored and sick of spending real money.

I really enjoy the Heritage product. Current players on vintage board and designs!

I'd say the vast majority of my collection is Post 2000 as I started collecting when i was like 9/10/11 or so when my uncle gave me a lot of cards and my parents started buying me packs. Since I re started collecting in 2020, Ive bought a hobby box or 2 of each series(1,2 and update) of flagship and then a couple of blasters of Topps gypsy queen.
I don't have any fancy modern cards but like to buy them just to stay connected to the players I get to watch every day. I plan to keep in this way, opening a few boxes of flagship and Topps gypsy queen to have something cheap and fun to open and then spend most of my money of vinatge.

A little. I'd guess it's no more than 5% of my collection.

I buy post 2000 all the time. There is a financial component to it. I have been flipping modern guys for a few years now. I'm in no way a big timer. Only making maybe a few hundred bucks a year, I swim in the low end of the financial pool. But it is fun to speculate on guys and follow them throughout the year and see how it turns out. Keeps me connected to the game in a way.

With price of cards going sky high, I decided in the spring of 2020 to pick up a few modern cards. Ohtani, Guerrero, Tatis, and Acuna. Have bought some auto cards of these also. Fun to open some packs again, but I still like the vintage cards better.

I’ve got a Mookie Betts rookie and I get Mike Trout’s base Topps flagship, Heritage, Archives, Update, and Bowman cards every year.

Like a couple others have posted I do have a small Mike Trout collection. I collect 500HR items and some are post 2000. But most of my real money purchases are pre world war 2 cards and Memorabilia. As a sports fan I have Colts 76ers and Devils items and some are post 2000 as well. But Baseball my collecting passion is pre 1910.

I have a couple High end cut auto's from Flawless and Sterling,a few very nice jersey/patches for various products, but to say I still collect modern is a bit of a stretch. That being said , I do bust a Walmart box every few weeks, just for the fun of it.

The Hall of Fame project requires modern Hall of Famers' RCs. I also have a huge Jim Thome PC, and collect Cleveland Indians occasionally.
