Did you ever say "heck with it!"?

Did you ever just say heck with it and pay a crazy BIN? I've been looking at a nice centered PSA7 of a card that is worth about 200 sellers BIN is 299, with no "or best offer". I'm thinking of just biting the bullet and paying the price and trying to forget what I paid just to have the card in the condition I want. What do yall think? Dave.

If u want it and the extra 99 won't affect your life then I say go for it. Carpe diem

I think there's more folks out there than you think that have "been there, done that". But it all comes down to if you are pleased, that's all that matters.

Just send the seller an email and see if he'll drop the price a bit.

It actually can work... I emailed a seller a couple weeks ago on a memorabilia item, saying I'm interested but asked if he could lower the price and the shipping charge a little bit.

Checked the next day and he had dropped the price by 20% and cut the shipping in half.

Never hurts to ask.

I Have bitten the bullet many times and just hit the BIN. More often I have made offers that were accepted. The guy had this really neat postcard at $350 or best offer. I offered $100 as I have an idea of their values. They countered with about $200....I countered their counter and told them I collect these all the time and the most I will go is $125...and that in and of itself is almost the most I have paid for a generic scene like this. The next day they accepted...

That's a cool looking postcard! Any idea what's going on in that photo? Family picnic? Easter? 4th of July? I see one guy with a big "A" on his shirt. Could be "A" for Adrian!! Whew what a Twilight Zone91 Episode that would be!! Zone91 starts showing up in the backgrounds of all of our cards and photos! Dave
