I do lament the fact that when I build certain sets, all I look at is the card numbers, and then close the box for years. I try to make a point of at least going through the set when it's done and trying to appreciate it a little. I am also at the point that I find stuff I didn't remember I had.

That's not really something I know. Once I finish scanning everything and get my sets back together, I plan to label each box...I am not sure if I will write the contents on the box itself, or number them and make an Excel chart listing the numbers. The intent was always to wright directly on the box but the number idea hit me while typing this reply and I think I might like it better- that way I can always adjust the boxes as needed without having to cross anything out.

And you KNOW Topps would smack and RC on that if it was a current rookie. <br /><br />My collection is relatively small, but yet I feel like I ignore the complete sets. They are boxes so not really easily look-at-able. Whereas my Strawberry, Kruk and Vintage/HOFer card collections grow somewhat regularly.
