Default Depressed over major auction houses?

Often many of the items I look for only come up through some of the major auction houses. When I get a big shiney new catalog and don't see cards from a set I'm working on I get majorly depressed.

Does this happen to you?

Yes and no......Yes, but it means I don't have to figure out how to come up with the money to purchase too. There are 2 different issues, D351 and D355, and if they ever come up...then I will just have to go for the 2nd mortgage option..

eBay has had some great cards offered this year (at least for me). I waited all year for the REA catalog and there were only a few items that I was interested in. So yes, it's not fun when I look at the big catalog with nothing in it for me!

+1--especially when you want it bad, have been looking for it for years, and it's just not the right time for the $$$!

Best wishes to all,
