Great story Eric. I've made many a poor decision while drinking and buying cards haha. I'd say you did really well in this instance! Beautiful card. The OC is tough. Plenty of even border on the right side. Doesn't detract from the card at all.
I have my own Gretzky tale. Just last night I participated in a 1979 Topps set break through Vintage Breaks, who I believe is a friend to Net54. I don't get involved in breaks that often but watch occasionally. I was feeling lucky Wednesday so I bought into the break for 10 spots. The break went live last night. We were out getting a Christmas tree so I couldn't even tune in to watch. I checked the break list when we got home and...bang...hit card 18 a PSA 7 Gretzky rookie! I was jumping around the house. I know it's like gambling but $200 for a PSA 7 Gretzky rookie has basically made my Christmas haha. Can't wait to have it in hand and will drop some pictures when it comes in.
