What stings are the purchases you hold off on, only to see the price shoot up, or something like it never come across the page again at that price. It happened to me twice here. Couldn't justify spending the Money at the time on a Berk Ross Mantle, only for it to climb in price. To the point where it just sold on ebay for over 3K when I could've gotten it on here for close to half of that, back in June. Live and Learn. Enjoy your copy of Casey at the Bat!

Normally I'd agree, but as long as those cheaper copies are still readily available I can confirm that this is at least one purchase I regret, as much as I still love the poem.
