What is the Most Money You Ever Spent On A Patch???
The most money I ever spent on a patch was $900 For a Black Eagle Lodge #482 F-1. I still haven't broken the 1G level yet. What is scary is some people have spent several thousand for a single patch.

The most money that I have spent is right around $100 for a single patch. I was going to spend a few hundred on an Abnaki 102 S1, but that fell through. I have several patches that are worth a few hundred each, but I got most of them in a right place at the right time sort of deal. I know what you mean about people spending thousands of dollars on patches. I have a few friends who I have seen spend a few thousand each of the past few years at the Pittsburgh TOR. There's just no way that I can afford that while I'm still in college.

I suppose that if I was not stuck in high school or at least if I was employed, this number will have been higher, but I think the most I've spent on one patch is... $15? ... but most of the time I'll buy a lot of patches at one time, if that counts (and then trade several for a rare one, etc.)

I am one of ferris274"s friends who has spent money in Pittsburgh and Philadelphia. That should give you an idea of what I have spent on patches.

I still think you and Ron are crazy, Gap. But you guys do manage to pick up a lot of nice stuff.

I've spent over $500 each for some mint S1 issues in the past 3-4 years but those issues are now worth approx $1,000 each........better than the stock market during the same time period!! I have also spent over $1,000 for a collection of neckerchiefs that included a mint Wahissa N1, a nice first n/c from our council camp (very rare), and some other rare issues from our local camp.
