You know you are a card addict when
 
Posted By: <b>Anthony S.</b><p>...when you wake up in the morning and realize you dreamt that a major auction house inadvertently sent you someone else's cards in addition to the cards you won.<br /><br /> <br /> And that someone is a specific person from this board, who I don't know personally, but who had posted a great card that they had won in a recent auction the day before I had that dream. I think this officially qualifies as coveting.<br /><br /> I'm pretty sure that, in the dream, I was contacting that person in order to get his cards to him, but I may have just been contacting him to set up visitation rights.<br /><br />

Posted By: <b>Anthony N.</b><p>&lt;&lt;When you replace your pinup girl calendar with a pin up dealer calendar, Barry Sloate dressed up like cupid laying on that hart shaped bed is great, Leon like the Easter Bunny is not bad either. However I could do without that half naked Levi Bleam spread…&gt;&gt;<br /><br />this sounds like foreshadowing- I'm sure the Wonka "Dealers of The Hobby" pinup calendar is already well in the works.
