At my peak (last year) I had around 120,000 cards from 1977-1993 and 2002-2012. I was going to donate or pitch all the commons when I realized that if my son or nephew decided to collect or became interested in baseball when they got older, I would have to tell them that I gave all my cards away and I didn't want to tell them that, even in a hypothetical situation. So I took about 4 months and went through every card and pulled aside hall of famers, significant players/cards (Expos, cool names, etc), Red Sox, and Yankees. I donated everything else. I was able to consolidate everything down to 4 monster boxes + my better stuff, donated the rest, and am very happy with the results.
