Another sTEAL

Yesterday I posted about getting a card that was a steal of a price.  A $1 purchase with $4 s&h for a prime patch 2021 Diamond Kings card numbered to only 5 copies.  

Well my friends, I have gotten a few cards over the past month that have been extremely affordable that are helping to fill holes in the Cutch PC.

This 2018 Donruss Retro 1984 teal card is limited to a healthy 199 copies, but I never pulled the trigger to add it to my collection.

Oddly enough I have 3 (yes THREE!!!!) copies of the pink Mother's Day Breast Cancer ribbon parallel that are limited to only 25 copies. 

That math just doesn't make sense
But....what does make sense?

Snagging another card I need for under $3 shipped.
$3 back in 1984 could buy a lot more than now, that's for sure.  

A pack of 1984 Donruss Baseball at release would have cost only 30 cents.  By today's inflation that would equal 77 cents of buying power. 
A price of a blaster box containing 6 packs of 2021 Prizm basketball sold for $150 on eBay recently.  That's $25 a pack....for 4 cards!!!!

This math just isn't adding up!!!

Where's another meme of bad math?
Good ol' Albert.
