Default Baseball cards

This is a topic that I have pondered a lot this weekend:

So i was cleaning out my closet at my parents house and came across like 4 notebooks full of hundreds of baseball cards that I have had since being a kid. I looked through 1 book and a few notable names I saw were Barry Bonds (2 cards from 1990), Sammy Sosa (1990 White Sox), Gary Sheffield, 5 Chipper Jones rookie cards...so im guessing there may be a few good cards in the other books...

my question...do yall think that selling baseball cards is what it used to be? I remember back in the 1990's that it was a big deal to have cards and buy Beckett magazine to watch card prices, but have since not paid attention. Thoughts about value of baseball cards or other types of collections (ie: Stamps) and do they carry the same value that they did in the older generations today or is it a lost hobby / longterm investment??
