Your GDMF T220 was my D355 last year .....it happens. Now I am collecting type cards but not every darned one I don't have, as before. I don't think we can second guess timing. Hindsight is always 20/20....

Sometimes you just have to laugh at the timing. I got very frustrated chasing a T220 silver border set. I needed one of the two SPs to finish it literally for decades. I finally threw in the towel and liquidated the set. Wouldn't you know it, that GDMF card is coming to auction in November.
