Well, technically this isn't an ebay purchase, but I have purchased from this person on ebay before...

I finally bit the bullet and bought a card at the card show today that I have wanted for a long time. It was a sizable purchase (don't even want to say the price out loud to myself), but was cheaper than I have ever seen it. I have bought from the seller many times over the years and he cut me a good deal:

Freddie Highmore Charlie and the Chocolate Factory autograph!

I know I will never buy the Depp auto. Can't justify the high price. But aside from the Helena Bonham Carter autograph (which I also purchased from the same dealer earlier), this was the one I most wanted. Only two more autographs needed to have one of each of the kids!

Very pleased to get this one!

Congrats on a great find!! I've been searching for that card for awhile now myself and it hardly ever turns up. I know there's less than 90 of it in existence so it's very rare and it usually sells over book price. It's a sweet card!

Thanks, Logan! I talked myself into buying the card by reminding myself that I have sold many, many cards over the last couple months to save up for it. The cards I sold are ones that I didn't really care about. Also, like you, I realized that this card is very tough to find and I needed to just grab it while I can. The man who sold it to me actually broke up a master set he had so I could get it and the Helena Bonham Carter auto!

I'm loving that there are superb sketches at quite affordable prices for DC Legacy. I picked up these 2 stunning Di Amorin sketches for less than $80 total this week.

I am so in love with the sketch cards here!

Well, because of Christmas and a huge family... ebay has kind of taken a back seat but I did manage to get a Witchblade case card for less than $10.00 and a sealed box for 9.99 (not including shipping) that had more foil cards that I needed and a redemption card.

I find denial to be a very effective defense mechanism, too. Saves me lots of money.
