runscottIf we couldn't make up "post purchase" rules to reduce cognitive dissonance, then we would rarely buy anything frivolous. For instance, before I sold Jay the 1892 Bingos cabinet, I considered it to be Keeler's "rookie". Now that I don't own it, and I DO own a t206 of Keeler - that becomes his rookie. I have all kinds of reasons why the previously-issued Keeler cards aren't rookies, but my reasoning only makes sense in my own mind.
