I don't know who needs to hear this, but I strongly encourage you to bid responsibly today. This stuff is intoxicating and it's easy to lose control.

I've been through some hype cycles. If you're buying collectible casts because you think it's going to make you rich, you're wrong. Less than 0.01% of casts purchased today will appreciate in value.

Search your heart and ask yourself "do I really value this collectible more than I value $15?" and if the answer is yes, make that bid. If the answer's no, don't.

When I was in college, I used to ask myself, "Do I really want this shirt more than I want 15 40oz bottles of Olde English?" Frame it in dinners out, BasePaint mints, personal trainer sessions, or whatever is easy for you to reason about. But ask yourself the question.

So go buy some collectibles that you're excited to own forever at prices that make you feel like you're getting a bargain. Have fun, be safe, be responsible.

I'll see you out there.

And don't you dare outbid me.
