Back in the early 1980's a fellow I knew got so caught up in his pursuit of the T206 set that he sold his riding lawnmower to buy an O'Hara. Problem was he lived on about a two acre lot and his grass went wild.

He is now divorced, don't guess his wife shared his love of the monster?

...when you're age 12 and you have your the local, hometown dealers' home phone numbers.

...when your dog's middle names are Jefferson and Burdick.

...when you reserve your vacation a year in advance so that you can attend the National.


Love this thread

When you constantly overpay for card(s) you have to have and then sell them later at a lower price to buy the next card(s) you have to have.... or what I like to say the Buy High, Sell Low strategy

and when your savings account is actually cards, you deposit cards when you have extra money and then withdraw and sell them when you need money... kind of related to the strategy above

when you see on the sports ticker for baseball scores and you read Cobb from Tampa Bay. For a second or two, you actually think Cobb for Detroit.

When your mailman asks if you collect cards.

What the 2 or 3 bubble warp envelopes that come every day gave it away???

When you wake up too early and instead of rolling over and going back to sleep, decide to check your ebay "saved searches" one more time.
