Default What did you buy drunk?

I'm drinking a bit tonight and have an itch to buy some cards on the bay. This brought up an interesting question. Over the years, what were your drunk buys?

3-4 things in the $200-400 range
Much much much much more for lesser amounts. Regret every time to be honest.

I usually do the opposite and list stuff when Ive had a few drinks or lower prices. I find I don't feel as attached to things when a little boozy.

You're a Bucks fan? You should buy my Victor Oladipo Jumpman 1/1 Shoe Card because he plays for the Pacers.

You did say you were drunk, right?

I don't make too many mistakes when drunk and don't often drink enough to get drunk, which isn't some crazy amount, but I usually don't have more than three drinks. Now, when I'm high... that's when I make all kinds of mistakes. Nothing in my ebay purchase history sticks out as a mistake, fortunately, but I'm way more inclined to pull the trigger on something in the $200+ range. Honestly, I'm not sure if I ever buy anything when I'm stone cold sober unless it's an absolute steal.

Even drunk I don't stray too far from my watch list, that's why I make sure my watch list is on point.
