The only Problem I have is with you stating " That Hulk44 didn't have to pay $7500" ... My problem with that is : If I wait, I could lose the book.. Another deal could be struck at any minute here, we are talking about the only 10 CGC SS out there..What happens if I blink, poof it's gone..Yes, I coulda of waited and maybe, just maybe got the book for less, but another deal could of been struck, or a buy it now on Ebay..There are many people out there with deeper pockets then me, do I risk it, NO WAY, not me...SO, I pay an extra $2500, It doesn't bother me, I got the book I want, and if I blinked, I coulda lost everything..
Poker, funny, I am a huge Gambler, have a sports acount and everything. My game is CRAPS, LOVE craps, get free rooms all the time in AC...SO yes, I have seen people lose big time, I read the story with the $50,000 loss without a blink of an eye, I saw a WHALE once come to the table, Never saw a WHALE before, WHALE meaning this guy has millions to burn, he freaken lost $450,000 in a matter of 30 minutes...Just funny when you posted the Poker story, I am a Gambler, Big Time...
