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.

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.

I am actively buying and selling vintage sports cards graded and raw. Feedback as a buyer: https://www.net54baseball.com/showthread.php?t=297262

I am accepting select private consignments of quality vintage cards (raw or graded) and collecting "want" lists for higher end ($1K+) vintage cards.

Asking your question in a vacuum is unanswerable. There are too many variables to consider. For example, would I spend $50,000.00 on a baseball card for my personal collection? Absolutely not. However, would I spend $50,000.00 on a card that I could immediately flip for a nice profit? Absolutely. Everything is relative.

Asking what is the most you have ever spent (instead of what is the most you would spend) on a baseball card for your personal collection is the better question. There are less variables with this question. However, it is a personal financial question, and you many not get a lot of responses.
