While putting together a 1956 topps set I once bought two Early Wynn cards from the same dealer at a show, about ten cards total I handed him and asked for a price for all of them, not even realizing two Wynn's were in there.
Then off ebay I saw a Jackie Robinson priced great and hit the buy it now, only to open the package when I got it to realize I bought a 55 topps instead. I even went back to the auction to check, figuring he sent me the wrong card...nope, it was me.
