Yeah, I know Andy. I'm not holding out too much hope for that one, money is pretty tight right now..............

If money is tight, there's no way you're going after it right now...already at $10k + juice (at PSA 4!!!!!)...incredible what's going on with the Ripken rookies (orange and blue)!!

Damn, I'd always wanted to get one of those Ripkens eventually. Looks like, even in bad condition, they've worked their way out of my typical price range

Anyways, some great pickups this month guys.. Especially the rookies.

My lone pickup. Money got really tight. This might be it for a while. So I guess I'll be living vicariously through you guys... Unless, I start selling some of the dead weight in my collection..

I feel your pain. I have overshot my budget. My wife has been very cool about it this time. So, don't feel like the Lone Ranger. I am going to have to knock off for a while.

Yeah. It's not so much, dropping out of the game for a bit, that get's me the most. But that, when I don't have any disposable money, all the stuff I've been looking for pops up for cheap, and keeps trying to suck me back in.. Already a day into deciding that I need to drop out for a bit, I'm already fighting off the urge on 2 items right now. I've got a feeling I'm gonna cave in and get one of 'em..Hopefully not both.

So bid 'em up guys, and save me the troubles..

Yep, I can definitely relate. Every time I think about the need to step back for a little bit, something unexpected ALWAYS pops up. And, yes, I am addicted.
