Most you would spend on a card?

I would never buy a card when the children needed shoes.

Me either, I would go down to the Sally and get them a slightly used pair from
the WalMart that someone donated first.

I think I paid like $25-$30 for a rookie Wade Boggs card once. Can't imagine a better card so that is my limit.

No answer is possible: it depends entirely on the ask and the card.

Hey ParkPlace33,

I think I understood the curiosity behind your question. I also understand it not being entertained by all. Fragile community sometimes and why you're getting the snarky replies. You can simply move on if you're not interested in answering, but it cancels out the ability to have the oh so clever comments which are often pretty good entertainment. For me, the amount of money I'm capable of spending vs the amount I'm willing to spend are two entirely different answers and I would not respond to the first. But the second is fair game and why I shared my budget mentality. The question has been posed before with different language so you can likely search for "budget" and find some of those threads.

Anyway, I don't think you're a horrible human being or intentionally digging into my finances. No lives will be lost on here today and no significant impact to anything in the world will come of any statement made. It's a baseball card forum - have fun.

Thanks, appreciate it and the information!

My curiosity stemmed from crazy recent sale prices and if those members were on Net54.

Most I would spend on a card - could be a little, could be a lot, depends on the price and perceived value. I just spent $1.k on a 1999 Charizard PSA 9 - maybe I have lost my marbles.

You can get a gecko for less and they eat insect pests.
