Every collector has a card that got away.

In this episode, Brett shares the story of a card that came back around. Earlier this year he lost the 2020 Crown Royale Crystal Platinum Tyrese Haliburton 1/1 at auction after spending hours researching it and building conviction around the card.

Then the card appeared again.

A second chance.

Brett breaks down what happened next and explores the psychology behind second chances in collecting. Why missed grails stay with us, how auctions influence decision making, and how reference prices shape the way collectors experience wins and losses.

The first time the card sold for over $1200.
The second time Brett set a max bid of $1701.
The auction closed at $775.

Sometimes the hobby gives collectors another opportunity.

The real question is what that second chance reveals about the collector.
