Default --Oh no!--the one that got away!--

These are the ones I remember most, the most painful--
the ones that got away--
I curse myself for weeks or more over these.

Here's my most recent, a 1927 Exhibit Ty Cobb for $77:

It was a Sunday night, and my wife and I watched an episode of Downton Abbey. It ran an hour and a quarter instead of the usual hour or less. I wound up minutes late.

I'll never see that card at that price again.

Two weeks later and I'm still in agony.

Misery loves company; show yours
and we can commiserate communally.
