Nothing as dramatic as some of the stories already posted but when I first kicked around the idea of putting the '67T set together a dealer I was talking to offered me the Seaver and Carew rookies and a small stack of other SPs for about $300 total as i recall. I passed thinking I could do better on eBay at some point.
In the last six months I finished the set and spent well over a grand for the two rookies.
