I need some encouragement material.

Lets see some cards that you once sold but regretted after doing so, and list how long it took for you to get that card back.

Thanks
 
2005-06 UD Ultimate Endorsed Emblems Ryan Miller three color autograph patch #/35, sold it originally, bought it back, and then quit collecting for the like the seventh time and sold it again. I may be another if the price is right.
 
Pulled that card when i busted Ultimate like there was no tomorow.

Sold it during the Stamkos hype, 6 months later it went back in auction and it came back home.It made a little trip to Texas the month after.

Some cards like Ovy Ice and Ultimate rc i regret selling and bought back twice.:rolleyes:

Some cards i use to own are up for bids right now and i might take a stab on a couple if the bidding dosent get to crazy.
 
These were but a handful of the many casualties of a purge when I decided that I didn't want any Upper Deck cards in my collection:

I changed my mind about a month later and the hunt was on to re-acquire everything back. Moral of the story: don't make big decisions without sleeping on it first. The good news? All came back better than the originals:

Good luck getting your card(s) back!
 
several, one I almost got back at a price that was less than I sold it for, but I was out sniped by someone

I have owned two different copies of this card, and now I am searching for it again

Forsburg21, that last ultimate patch is nice!

Curious to know, it look as if it is cut mid logo and then jersey? never seen one that is cut like that usually stitched corner than jersey.

Many of the 04-05 Ultimate Patches were re-layered by UD, so there are a lot of weird looking patches in that set.
 
I pulled one of these and traded it toward a Bobby Orr auto, and after starting up my Ovechkin PC, I've been bummed that I traded it, and I didn't even keep the Orr, as I traded it for a Gretzky auto, but last night I was able to land one. I'll post a better scan when it comes in, but for now, here's the card, finally coming back to my PC...

Matt hit the nail on the head here. It looks like it was jersey and then the patch was glued on top. It would've been nice if the patch took up the whole window, but oh well!

Here's my addition...made a stooopid trade, this card, gretzky SOTT, and BAP Jagr stick card for roughly $200 of cards back in '98. I finally got this one back last year with a trade with a HI member. I wish I could get the other two I traded, too. (Jagr stick had a part of the E from Easton, 3 colors.)
 
I bought this for $75 back when it first came out. A member later came to me and offered me an amount of money I couldn't refuse, and as hard as it was, I gave it up. Well, a few months later it landed back in my possession.
