It's the only 1/1 I've ever pulled myself. I traded it away in the first blogger trade I ever did. I regret not getting more for it than I did. Even though Young never was a big name player true 1/1's are not easy to come by. Especially since I pulled it from a retail pack against astronomical odds. While I do regret not getting more for it, I don't regret not having it anymore since I don't PC Young. I've pulled and bought tons of cards that have way more monetary and sentimental value since then.Need More Cardboardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07540048778639635835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6478210922256628541.post-6149195714955481482015-06-26T17:52:23.500-05:002015-06-26T17:52:23.500-05:00No cards spring to mind, but I regret getting rid ...No cards spring to mind, but I regret getting rid of a Dick Allen baseball I got signed in person. I just included it with my big lot of baseball cards I didn't want to move out of state when I moved from San Diego to Portland. Dumb! But at least that was the only thing I regretted jettisoning once I got back into collecting a few years afterwards, as I had hung onto most of my favorites.defgavhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15338984361942309651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6478210922256628541.post-8456596342489795182015-06-26T12:36:28.097-05:002015-06-26T12:36:28.097-05:00I made a post dedicated to this topic not too long...I made a post dedicated to this topic not too long ago. I made a bunch of idiotic trades for cards I really wanted (think George Steinbrenner with cards instead of players) and gave up more than an arm and a leg for stuff that ultimately wound up being $2-3 cards on COMC.

Maybe my complete 1984 Donruss set, which I sold in 1989 ostensibly to fund a trip to Russia (which never actually happened for me).

Most of my regrets are for more monetary reasons like Jeff. I have had some high end cards like a Tom Brady auto, Jeter auto and Shoeless Joe bat card that I probably could have done much better with today.

I showed it off to some neighborhood friends and then it disappeared later that week, never to be seen again... I think I know what happened to it, but could never prove it. Anyway, they ended being re-purchased from quarter boxes in the last year or so.<br /><br />The only time I regret giving up cards was late last year (before I started blogging and trading) and I cut bait on all the 2014 stuff I didn't want for myself. It was an 800 count box of Donruss, Topps, Topps heritage (including SPs), and a couple other odds and ends. I could have traded most if not all of it away with folks around here, but instead I used it for $10 off cards from a dealer.Brianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03580716283983922689noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6478210922256628541.post-63602071085342480552015-06-26T08:34:14.966-05:002015-06-26T08:34:14.966-05:00The subject begs for a Gotye parody song.

Can't say that I have had any huge cards in my collection. About the only one (maybe) is the Bryce Harper SSP that came out of Archives a few years back. And only because maybe I could make a few more bucks on it now.JediJeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10261262040532716901noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6478210922256628541.post-5405222898420912432015-06-26T08:27:37.467-05:002015-06-26T08:27:37.467-05:00Great idea for a future post.
