Feel free to respond and chime in whether or not you feel it is a form of psychosis.

LOL :D Probably........I think I may fall into the "card hoarding" (boarderline psycosis) catagory myself :)

Yeah, there is. I stalked a nice "56 Kahn's Frank Robinson for about 12 years before finding one not accompanied by 18 other cards in a major auction lot!

All the best, guys!

It's not in my DSMIV but we may have a bit of a window to get it in before
the DSMV comes out in the middle of 2013.
It's certainly worth incubating. :)

Sociopathy.

Psychosis if you think a fake is genuine.

As long as she is 18 or older it's all good

I am a Card Stalker. I have 3 cards and 1 Premium I have been stalking for 10 years now. I don't labor over it at all, and to be honest, I think these 4 pieces are my carrots that keep me motivated and focused on my collecting mission. To pass the time, I create new areas or interest to get into, but must say, I buy at a rate of about 1-2 pieces a month. (Far less than I once did...) Either way, I think the hunt may be just as important as the finish line!

Is that the same as being a card pervert?

I've been known to be a card peeping Tom.
