Okay this is a bit tricky... but would be interesting and funny!
What was the crappiest card you've ever bought for a high price? Something that you didn't really want but for some reason, you did?
I'm still trying to think what mine was. Probably the Kobe auto that looked fake! I never paid for it though coz the seller never contacted me. That was a close one! But I guess all my box buys (4) are the crappiest. WHAT A WASTE OF MONEY! I should have a LeBron auto now if I didnt buy those 4! The best card I pulled out of those 4 was a Jordan base of SP Signature! (and a Beno Udrih auto :lol). Wasted $200+.
hmmm, ive never really paid more than i should for cards, the only one i remember is paying $5 for a 93/94 hoops Shaq base card when i was a noob to the hobby back in the day. i lost about $2 on taht one hehe.
yeah boxes are where ive lost most money, my box of hardcourt cost me $175 and i pulled nothing, my box of SPGU cost almost $200 and i pullled nothing, in fact the best cards ive pulled have been from cheaper boxes.
Damn $4 bucks.. :shock: LOL If thats it you have done well.
I paid something like $90US for a Bird 93 finest refractor. Thats about $80 over what they sell for now but in hindsight who would have envisioned eBay let alone windows 95???
It was in the only card shop and for sale. Nuff said, I had to have it
Not a regret but still purchases like that suck in hindsight.
Back when Carmelo was hot and D-Wade was not, I handed over $1200 for Carmelo's Hoops HP, SP Authentics and SPx (BGS 9) Rookies! Now their worth about $600.....if I can get BV. :evil:
Should have banked on D-Wade instead.
Could have gotten a nice LBJ or MJ with that cash.....or a holiday. 8)
