Can you give us a example of say 1 or 2 cards you are ''dying'' to find that way we could have a better opinion? Personally I do not mind overpaying for a card I truly want and have been searching for...for a long time.
As a collector I have learned almost everything comes up for a sale...yes some times it takes years but in that case you have to bid strong.
Or maybe simply your budget DOES NOT fit with the cards you want (maybe the stuff you want is simply outside your league of play...I have a LOT of stuff like that I simply can't afford even if I waited 100 years)...can't want to find a 10 000$ card for 5000$ it just does not happen!!! Personally I am ready to spend up to 10 000$ to 20 000$ on a card I truly want but NOTHING higher than that....NEVER!!! Even if the card was 20 001$ I would simply tell myself it is out of my league and simply move on to other options....and never think about it again as been a possibility...a LOT of us live this way unless you are a millionaire then things are completely different....But I know I will NEVER be a millionaire so I learned to coop with the reality I have in front of me and make my purchases accordingly.
