That really is a good attitude to have, imo. I do the same on the card side of the hobby in that, sometimes I make money and sometimes I lose money. More often I do ok but I take the bumps and bruises in stride. happy collecting.....

Deal with reputable dealers that have been around a long time and you will NEVER get hurt, We took the "bumps and bruises" years ago
