			Actually, no single card.  Most of the old stuff I've bought was bought long a go, and I've been a bit picky for the last ten years or so. The good thing is that even the ones I graded that came back lower than I expected didn't take a hit in value at all. Now the boxes full of newish stuff I bought between about 86 and 96......... I've sold a few I miss, but the deals were good at the time, so I can't be too worried. And of course, I didn't buy a lot of cards I wish I had bought. Steve B |

			I would say over thelong haul, I'm about even.  I certainly wouldn't make a living off of selling cards.  :-)

			This is probably one of my worst losses, when I just got back in the hobby and didn't know what I was doing.  I remember I wanted to try to pick up some cards from some of the big names from some famous sets like T205.  Note to self (and others): avoid cards in GAI holders.
