It's all good.

The only reason I had bought the card was because I had a store credit in the collectibles store that I wanted to get rid of. And since they had no framed and signed pictures that I wanted or signed pucks, I didn't know what else to use it on.

Then I saw the Crosby Young Guns rookie card behind the counter and thought "hey, this'll be the only time I will justify myself paying this amount of money for a single card and I've always wanted a Crosby rookie...so why not use my credit??"

Had that have been me walking in there with $400 cash, I would never spend that much of my hard earned cash on a card y'know? For the amount of money people foolishly pay for today's top-end cards, I'd much rather use that money on framed and autographed pictures for my wall or a few autographed pucks instead. Which is what I've been doing.

Know what I mean?
