I mean there are no cards I want that I could theoretically afford to win…but only if I bid more than I had mentally budgeted. So, I either spend way more than I planned to or I don’t win the card....either way I am not happy when the auction ends. Whereas if there's nothing I want, there's no disappointment.

And, yes, I also won nothing in the last Heritage auction despite putting in bids that were 25-30% more than I had planned to bid.

I feel the same way.
