First off, this problem may "haunt" almost every collector, but it does not enter into either my conscious or subconscious thoughts.

Second, when my collection gets sold, I will quite probably be dead, so I won't care what price it gets.

My advice to you, is to never buy another thing that you have any thought of ever selling, that way you won't have to worry about being haunted.

I lost out on an ebay auction tonight due to a business call causing me to forget about the end time. I was going to bid $51. The card sold for $0.35. It's a weird variation card that nobody (besides Al, and he already has one, probably) would ever be willing to spend $2 for, oh well, better luck to me next time.
