Mr Click Pillar of the Community United States 964 Posts	Posted 10/24/2015 12:53 pm We've probably all done it at least once. I would love to hear your best Justification stories for why you bought something that you probably shouldn't have. This could be a funny thread or a dud!

Centsei Valued Member United States 314 Posts	Posted 10/24/2015 1:07 pm The recurrent one for me is that I saw a similar item that sold for more. I'm trying not to be influenced so much by that. Report this Post to the Staff

I'm trying not to be influenced so much by that. This basically, except it can be a similar item being offered for more (at an antique shop or coin market). For example, the first Mercury dimes I've seen were labelled $20 price, so when I found one for $7 I bought it immediately. Report this Post to the Staff

DavidUK Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2624 Posts	Posted 10/24/2015 4:17 pm I tell myself "Its like investing in a pension... I can always sell it in old age" Report this Post to the Staff
Mr Click Pillar of the Community United States 964 Posts	Posted 10/24/2015 4:22 pm If I ever buy something for more than it's worth, I always justify it by saying "I've found so much silver at face, that it will make up for this or that purchase". Then I don't feel so bad yep that is my story and I'm sticking to it! Edited by Mr Click 10/24/2015 4:23 pm Report this Post to the Staff
X2an Pillar of the Community Sweden 1078 Posts	Posted 10/24/2015 4:25 pm I just bought a 20 Rappen piece from " ebay". My justification for the purchase was it would've sold for much less if I hadn't intervened Report this Post to the Staff

fistfulladirt Pillar of the Community United States 4333 Posts	Posted 10/24/2015 5:38 pm Well, I just spent 15 grand on an '08 Z71 Silverado, to tow the 25-foot camper that my wife bought without my knowledge. Can't tow the camper with her Equinox, or my Fusion. I found a silver dime in the center console. When I listen to LED ZEPPELIN...so do my neighbors... Roll hunting since '77 Dirt fishing since '72 Edited by fistfulladirt 10/24/2015 5:40 pm Report this Post to the Staff
