I am down to just over 10,000 cards - all Alpha. (Okay, with a few weird things tossed in.)

I have been up to about 35,000 a couple times, but then sold off sets, and sets of sets.

And once I bought 70,000 cards one day and sold it 4 hours later (skimming off about $1,000.00 in Alpha/Beta/power as my profit. (This was back when a dualland was worth $3.00... a looooong time ago.)

Best regards,

Rainsford

Almost 40.000 (don't include spare cards)

Everything from Unlimited to 10th Edition (including all expansions), Urza's Legacy foil set, and almost every existing Promos (only official).
I'm also have 64% of Beta completed, and around 100 cards from Alpha.
Maybe in the future I try to get some more cards from Alpha and Beta.

Right now my goal is:
-Complete Promo Set (missing 27 cards)
-Upgrade 69Legends cards in Italian to English
-Complete Uncommon Beta Set (missing 5 cards)
-Complete Common Alpha Set (missing 20 cards).
My Projects:
All Portuguese Stuff
20 Beta Rares, Korean Cards,
Limited Editions (Russian, French, German, Italian, Spanish, Chinese and Japanese)
Japanese Chronicles
Promos

I sold thousands and thousands of crap commons and uncommons i got from various collections to a dealer and shrunk my collection by half.

Lol Rainsford, if you sold all those alpha cards at once you'd destroy the aftermarket.
