Not a banner day here - I hit VIP Gold last month and had a nice 260k coins saved up. The Trammel TBT was announced and I burned through all these coins, bought another 250k more and did not pull Trammell until 90k was left !
I am Topps dream come true.
I love the TBT series and have them all now, but that was over the top - wanted to pull it to get award.
Only saving grace is I did pull ton of inserts/golds for PTS, etc, but wow - then the 50% SALE come out LOL.
Anyway - something to be said for patience.

I feel so stupid! I bought the mascot pack because at the time it was discounted again, first card I got was bernie brewer in pack, but I could've bought 4 and not 2! It's really about timing

Thanks for sharing the lesson learned--unfortunately we will all probably not heed the advice at one point or another. Everyone say with me, "My name is [insert name] and I'm a card collector..."

It's really about timing When the set is dead I would be interested in obtaining Bernie. What brewer fan wouldn't really. Lol. I wish they would give us more than twenty minutes notices on sales and had them for more than two hours. How about a weekend blowout. Half off coins half off packs all weekend. That's a good weekend if that ever happens.
