A couple months back I was on BO forums just casually looking for some good deals. I came across a seller who was selling base lots from several recent sets for cheap. Im always looking for cheap base to fill my team lots that I sell occasionally. So, I purchased 2011, 13 and 14 Heritage and 2013 and 14 Archives from him. All together it was roughly 1400 cards for $35. Thats $0.025 a card!

So after they arrive to my home I start the sorting process. This went on for about a week. After sorting was complete I was transferring the new cards to my team lots I already have. When I grabbed my Reds pile thats when I first noticed something different about the 2011 Topps Heritage Bronson Arroyo card. I noticed the background had a tint of green. I thought to myself "Ehh, its probably just a low end short print". So just before I was gonna throw it in my team lot I decided to look it up on ebay. I came across only a few green tint cards of low end players that sold for around $5. I kept it aside for about a month before I decided to put it on ebay. I thought I could at least get a few bucks for it. I mean, I only paid 3 cents for the card. So a few days ago I put it on ebay @ $2.99 + free shipping.

This is what it ended at today:

Not bad for paying 3 cents for it. It paid for over half of the lot of 1400 cards!
