Back in 1947 ... just kidding**

This was back in the noughties and I was working part-time at the factory and also taking part-time courses in college. I bought a 52T Mantle from BMW for around 12k, if I remember correctly. Back then, that was a lot of money for a card and everybody here just freaked out. Anyhow, because I was in my twenties and was more interested in going out, getting drunk, visiting the strip joints, etc., I barely even looked at this card. After a few years, I saw it was around 20kish and decided to get rid of it.

The guy who got it from me was hoping for a PSA 4. He drove to their headquarters and paid them their fee (a thousand bucks, I believe), but they said "no" and boy was he pissed! He did call me up a few times, but everything was cool in the end. I hope he still kept the card cause' it's worth a shitload now!
