I can't even believe what I am typing here.
But.
Today.....ALL day... even including now..

I have not "BROWSED" (as in shopped, looked, considered, searched) even

ONE

coin sale website.

NOT ONE!............. Weird. Has not happened for at least 15 years.
No eBay, no Collectors Corner, did look in and SEE smoe coins in various threads here on CU.

But I did not, of my own choosing....choose to even LOOK at a possible new coin.

I'm still standing, too.

    Almost sounds like the beginnings of a twelve-step program... ;)

    I don't look every single day but I always look a few times a week, at least, even when I am not in the market. Fun to browse.......

    Shoot, I even have saved bookmarks to SPECIFIC types, grades, cert
    and an entire folder of nothing BUT dealer direct websites.
    And another entire folder of "only darkside" dealers AND eBay traditional foreign coin specialists.

    YOW!

    Be careful... withdrawal can be dangerous..... perhaps just check some exonumia to ease the pains... :D Sort of like methadone for the addict.... ;) Cheers, RickO

    Soon you'll find yourself cherrypicking the best Oreo cookies and stopping to glance at manhole covers ;)

    Come to think of it, I seem to browse coins online everyday. I guess I like it! I can think of other things, obligatory, that I'd like to cut out, but not coins. Some coin discussions are a drag but those can get passed over. Coins are a pleasure to me.

    Possibility 1: Play on "newp," being pronounced the same, but indicating that there are no newps.
    Possibility 2: NOP instruction. Do nothing but proceed with the next instruction, or in this case the next day as a coin collector.
    Possibility 3: Phonetic corruption of "nope" for the purpose of introducing emphasis.

    Admin, I think the forum has slipped a cog and is posting entries from 1971.

    Better check.

    The acceleration of the intensity of the exacerbations in the binge-purge cycle is increasing. :s

    Perhaps the BitCoin futures market would be a soothing alternative :p
