Binging and Withdrawals

[EvilKing00]

Focusing mainly on T205's and Ruth cards with an occasional "other" type thrown in, I find that some months I can really get a bunch of cards, even over do it to the point of me saying to myself , "wow pulled in a lot recently and the mail man coming every day with 2-3 packages" & then I find my self going through Withdrawals cause I can go a while with out finding a card or enough cards to satisfy myself. Due to me not coming up with a cards I need or want in my price range.

Needless to say this is currently a withdrawal period lmao

picked up an off my grid card last night just to get a fix:

Anyone else go through searching out a card off your usual list?

That is a typical issue for me. I will find myself grabbing cards I think are good deals, most times I pay too much, just to keep my addiction for new cardboard satisfied. The problem is after 2-3 wees of buying cards not on my search lists I go through a period of "why did I just buy all these cards" and end up trading at the next card show or try to flip before they even arrive in the mail. Yes, I have a problem, but I get to see a lot of different cards throughout the year this way without killing my budget.

Huge +1.

LOTG has the "Set Builders" auction. It seems like every few months I have the "Why did Steve buy that?" auction.
