...I really only missed Wallman. And realized way back then, what a discriminating lot we have here.

If he takes my advice he'll be changing it to @JoeyKards soon.
He's turned his back on coins. He's all about cards now. Unlike coins, he can't cash in his rejects.

More like treasure hunting than gambling. He must have searched through an incredible number of rolls of coins. I wouldn't be surprised if he eventually comes back to coins.

Gambling. Literally. He played those YouTube sweepstakes constantly.
And now, mystery boxes:

Oh no. That is an expensive hobby. I learned that the hard way.
I learned it is much less expensive to buy the cards you want then to spend the money on a gamble box. However, if you got the money to burn then gamble away! Much more fun and exciting when you win!0 -
I am going to reach out to him for an intervention!😂🤣

So Joey and I exchanged PM's and I am happy to report that he and his family are fine but he has entered a new chapter in his life and will no longer be posting in the US Coin forum.😪
Joey has decided to move away from coin collecting and towards the thrill of the hunt ripping trading card boxes.😎

Are we talking baseball cards? Cause my 14U baller went through a spell opening numerous $75 boxes. Then puberty hit and now he worries about his hair which is the opposite of a mullet. Now it’s all in the front and shaved in the back. I wonder if Joey is growing a mullet 😆

One church has an "All Soul Day" where they remember all those in the family who died. I think it is November the first. We remember all the posters (most I never knew) in this thread who no longer post here for whatever the reason. I'm going to try to remember to revive this discussion next year on that date (if I'm still above ground) and maybe it will become an annual thing on CU.

Joey has always been very transparent about his hobby. Check out the Trading cards forum to follow his latest adventures 😉

Be careful assuming he has an addiction problem.
I believe he just loves the thrill of the hunt and is 100% passionate about anything he pursues and he loves to share his experiences with other members with similar hobbies.🥳🥳🥳
Labeling him an addict is just wrong and unfair in my opinion and that's all I am going to say about that.🙄

A box of quarters with 99% scrubs can help pay down the electric bill
or rent or buy groceries. The same in cards presented for the electric
bill, rent or groceries gets you zip, nadda, nothing. You are now a laughing
stock of your area.1 -

IMO, his behavior indicates addiction. You will tend to disagree.

Addiction by subtraction.
I'll never get this $75 back.

I neither agree nor disagree. I don't know him that well. He definitely liked gambling. He definitely had a certain compulsion, but don't we all? He definitely has fun. What else matters?

I got it. "Didn't expect you to get it, though" suggests, however, that the joke was at my expense not joking with me. So, in fact, I got both the joke and the subtext. Is there a prize?

The joke was at your expense, yes. My apologies for that, sir. It was a lighthearted nod to you being the forum contrarion. Can we at least agree on THAT? 😆

Not remotely possible. If I agree to being the contrarian, I'm not being contrary. If I disagree with being the contrarian, I'm being contrary. I will have to, again, neither agree nor disagree.
As to your thesis, have you ever looked to see how many times i hit the "agree" button? There is little point, other than padding your post count, to say "agree" in a comment. Hmmm...I may start. I'll be at 100k by Christmas.

roadrunner not being around is a big loss.
Longacre. Saintguru. RYK occasionally pops in but has other interests. TDN has far less of a presence here than before.
A number of dealers that used to be on here don't bother any more. pistareen, Regulated, FinallyHere, njcoincrank. At least Laura is over on the CAC forum although it can be pretty sleepy over there and I only check it on occasion."Look up, old boy, and see what you get." -William Bonney.

I often thought that a compilation of his posts here would become one of the most insightful and informative books on the history of the Liberty seated coins in the marketplace. He was a fantastically informative, "superb gem" poster here. I hope he returns.

On a serious note, I really miss roadrunner’s posts. I’d love to hear his commentary on the new market dynamics on us now concomitantly having both CAC stickers and CACG.
