As said it is like gambling and to be honest I think I am still beating the odds overall with all the busts I have had as a 2009 Classic Lockyer Cpt Sig and a 2008 Big Artie Immortal Sig helping to ease my pain.
It was a sealed box unless Steve has invested in a Select shrink wrapping device.....
Like gambling I will continue to chase the big wins and who needs Mandatory pre commitment anyway when you are married with kids...............
