Bama,

I can relate, I once had the brilliant idea that I needed all the Topps 1958 yellow-letter variations. A few months later, I spot on eBay a nice PSA "4" 1958 Clemente with a $100 buy it now. I quickly hit the purchase button thinking I had just found the somewhat more scarcer yellow letter. When it arrived, I soon realized that I made a big mistake and actually purchased the more common white letter. Since I had no need for it, I put the card on eBay via a straight .99 cents auction. Card sold at a $45 loss + the fees. To make matters ironic, the high bidder was the original buy-it-now seller, who promptly put it back on eBay for $100. I'm sure I made his day.

Lovely Day...
