I made a couple of bad decisions in the past with cards, well-documented. But I have most of them back, and then some. I don't have the 1967-68-69-70 Topps complete sets, but quite frankly, I don't care, I have the cards out of those sets that matter. And I have WAY more pre-war and memorabilia than I ever had. Regrets about foolish past mistakes? Sure, but that was then, and this is now. I never intend to make those bad decisions again.

I sold a 14CJ Wagner for $300 when I was a broke ass youngn'. I do regret that one, but not much else. The one I don't regret was selling my perfectly centered SGC 5 52T Jackie to buy my 14CJ Cobb.

Probably the one I still cry myself to sleep about would have to be my M101-5 Ruth Sporting News SGC 5.5 that, compared to today's prices, sold for a modest $16k about 10 years ago. I consigned it to Mastro when I departed the hobby and moved to London. Never would have considered using Bill if it hadn't been my long association and friendship with Kevin Struss.

This is the only one that really stings, mostly because it's worth a lot more now than when I sold it, roller mark and all.

I don't have any card regrets. If I sold or traded something, it was for another purpose. Always looking towards the future

![]() Yup. I enjoyed them while I had them. For the most part, I gave them up following the market up-swing, even though I'd previously stated I'd never sell them... Several Net54 members were, at least the next, owners. I could never afford to get them back... .

I don't have many regrets, most of what I sold was used to buy key pieces to my current collection. That said, I wouldn't mind having these ones back
