Once the party's shared Lore reaches the value printed on the card, the app highlights the item and you choose an upgrade of the next tier. The number on a card is the Lore needed to upgrade from it, not to obtain it. Lore is never spent. Upgrades return the old card to the supply, so no other hero can use the lower-tier copy.
