Have you ever won the wrong card?

I set a snipe for a card a couple years ago and a week later received some cheesey gemstone in the mail- I checked- sure enough I entered the wrong item number into the snipe software. I've learned to copy/ paste

This story takes the cake! Was it gem mint?

I appreciate everyone sharing their stories of collecting blunders.

I remember when JC won a blue E221 of LA. He was super excited until I told him he already had that same card with the same color background. I think he had the market cornered on them for a time. As for me, for buying, I have so many stories it's not even funny. I know I have at least acquired several cards which I already had. That isn't ordinary?

Now that I know I'm not the only one and am no longer embarrassed to admit I did that, it for sure is ordinary.
