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...
Thanks, I needed this

I'm sure you can laugh now, but surely it P'ed you off a great deal when it first happened...makes a great story tho
