I have excellent credit and do not need any more cards but I think I have too many cards though! I know that closing accounts can negatively affect your credit score, but what about having too many credit cards? My credit score is 783. I want to buy house next year.

Should I cancel any of these accounts? (Best buy, Banana Re, CompUSA) Or should I just keep them all open? Thanks for the advice!
