My mistakes have been many, but my favorite "always double check" story involves buying a traded set at the height of the ARod craze after he signed with the Yankees.
I opened the packing peanut filled box and removed the set and tossed the box in the dumpster. A few days later when I got around to looking for the ARod, I noticed it was missing from the set and emailed the seller.
I received this reply -
"I removed it from the set and it was in the box in a card saver as it is the best card"
Sigh...
At least that couple hundred dollar loss is now a faaaar smaller loss now, lol.
