Afternoon fellas....I've been lurking around in the shadows of CU for several months now and thought I should probably introduce myself. Little background: Collected mid-80's-mid 90's, got out of the hobby altogether, and just got back in early this year. I'm still wrapping my brain (what's left at least....college....different story) around what all has happened in the past 10 years or so, but reading the boards here has helped tremendously. Best of all, when I have to go into "selling" mode instead of "buying" mode, reading here helps to tap the vein and get me through. Really enjoy reading the threads and hearing what you guys think about different shenanigans going on in the hobby. Also can sympathize with the "wife doesn't understand" stuff, mine is still trying to figure out why I paid to get a pool table put in the basement just so it could be utterly unuseable 2 months later due to being covered in cardboard and toploaders.

Anyway, great to be here! Look forward to posting more than once per quarter....
