A lesson in "go with your gut." [View all]

There were only a few yard sales on Saturday, but I think I managed to blow a good find. I've never been a "Kiss" fan and know zero about collectibles associated with them other than some people collect stuff. So I stumbled upon a "Kiss" collection in the original boxes. I checked it over, all made in 2002 and all from China, and decided it wasn't old enough to be worth much of anything since it must have been mass produced. Couldn't get a cell signal to check ebay. When I got home and checked, I determined there was at least $250 worth of collectibles there. And so I raced back to the sale. And they were gone. I was so mad at myself for not taking a chance on it when I first spotted it.
