I collect only 2 of the newer items, but certainly not the "high-end" $300-a pack-for-5-cards stuff. I only collect 2009 Goodwin Champions and 2009 Allen & Ginter; by far the prettiest cards, AND the most plain - simple and elegant. I found both to be reminiscent of the vintage stuff to a degree.
You know what's funny with the new stuff is that some of it, when trying to complete a set, is super tough - I mean, WAY more difficult than locating some 206's or 213's. For example, a Kristi Yamaguchi Auto card from 2009 Goodwin for $200??? With only 50 signed, it's considered a "short print." She lives like 5 blocks from where I do - I should just walk over there and ask her to sign the damn base card for me.....  My most recent "new-stuff" acquisitions:
