Exactly....not a lot that I regret, the things I truly cherish collecting I still have and since filling a hole in my baseball memorabilia collection rarely comes along anymore I started collecting just regular postcards of my hometown...I'm up to probably 3,000 different postcards and I still find at least one per week that I don't have. 90% or more I pay less than 10 bucks each and occasionally have to shell out $100-$200 just because a local guy who also collects doesn't have it yet.

That said I kind of wish I still had the Roy Ellam postcard that had the pose for his T206 card.
