"20/XXX you gotta own this?!?" I only have to pay taxes & die!
Yea, we all have our limits. I walked away from the Roethlisberger SP Authentic 264/299 earlier this year. I offered $375 and then $400, sold for $450 a couple weeks later. I only wanted that one, because I didn't pull the trigger fast enough on a rebid for the SPx version that was also a PSA 10, lost it in 2005 and have never seen it since, probably never will.
The real gouging was on Chad Greenway. That story is highlighted on my website....
I believe I have two different members sending SPx 264/ freebies. Will have to wait and see.....
