Default Buying Cards You See For Cheap Or Spending It All On Something You Want?

Posted By: Addie_Joss

Well I know I answered my own question but I was wondering how the decision process gets made with you guys. I'll give you an example, recently I was at a show and contemplating buying an m101 Marquard with a Standard Biscuit back that probably would have graded a 5. The price was 500 dollars. So I cruised and thought about it when I came up to a table where a guy was willing to make me a deal. The guy offered to sell me a 1915 Cracker Jack Bresnahan graded a 4 and a t206 Lajoie throwing graded a 3 for 500 total. In the end I couldn't turn the deal down and ending up making 280 on the Lajoie and 450 on the Bresnahan. Now I wish I just bought the Marquard and kept it.
