$1000 bucks!!!
Well, I am generally one of the fishes lost in a sea of mediocrity, though never an "armpit" collector, as I find that phrase utterly disgusting...as such, my best cards are generally in the $50-100 price range.
However, I have parted ways with $1000 or a little more on two occasions in my collecting life, and they were both excruciating exercises in self-reflection...happy to say, though, that I still have each of the items and I have never regretted obtaining either.
I will try to post scans when I get home tonight, but they are:
1) a Kirby Puckett GU bat, PSA 7 for $1200 from an auction house (my only-ever auction house purchase)
and
2) a T200 Pittsbugh, SGC 60 with strong image quality for $1000 from a fellow board member
