Kevin,
I have a horror story of mine that brings up bad memories and ill feelings to this day, I was part of a HUGE "find" in the 1980s of 1957-58 Topps Hoops that were still in the original stand up 1 penny vending machines! Never taken out!!!! There was no Beckett at the time so I put a classified ad in SCD for the 2 and one half NM/MT sets that I had and I made about $1000 which to me at the time was BIG money! I know for a fact that almost every high grade card out there came from my "find" that I basically gave away!
Not quite the same exact vein as your story but the point is the same......we all truly make mistakes and if someone says they have never made one then...well.....they are fibbing! Some cost us money both ways (on what we bought or what we let get away) so we are all in a brotherhood of sadness sometimes.
Yours hurts because it is so recent and is a lot of $$$ and you put a lot of effort and time into your journey but time will heal the wounds. SELL the Arizona stuff. Get it out of your system so to speak and out of your sight. take the loss and move on.
My advice may sound contrarian as I describe my pain about my blunder even to this day but I say it with a bit of humor as I can look back now over 25 years or so and say "what a dummy I was!!!!!"
I guess its part of the healing....I don't know!
Good luck in your future pursuits and hang in there.
Peace, Mik
