A 100$ a month??? I could do that in 5 minutes!!!! Guess you ain't the addict you thouth you were - just a PW listening to your girl that thinks you are - love collecting?? Coins VS Girlfriend - decisions, decisions,!

Coins never leave you and you always know what you got - can't say that about girlfriends

 

Huh... and I was expecting to read something about responsibility for one's own actions in regards to highly questionable buyer conduct, and intentionally trying to ruin someone's ebay business. Silly me.

 

Hi, my name's Chris. I haven't left an unwarranted negative in 5 days. Where's my chip?

 

OMG ... I thought for a moment you were going to use the "S" word .... stamps !

 

Sorry Chris but your girlfriend has to go, as a coin - a-holic remember the 10 steps and pledge. And no matter what NO REHAB.....

 

I promised my lady I'd spend only $50/month. I spent that already on supplies this year! Hopefully I can trade away my excess world coins and save up for a good coin for my Type Set at the end of the year. I am also a coin-a-holic.

 

I am NOT a coin-aholic. I can stop anytime.

 

lol. seriously i love yall guys...lol

 

Problem is that we would secretly collect the sobriety chips...

 

she loves me even if i am still collecting , but i want to be able to contribute to things and help us grow better.. this is more of a personal discipline than anything else , i can always box hunt and that doesnt count..as spending..lol..

 

secretly i may raise that to 150, opposed to my like 4-500 a month

 

I stop collecting a long time ago.. I just keep forgetting to remind myself

 

my monthly spending amount varies. it is never set. usually in the $100 range. $300-500 range during christmas for myself. lol yup a nice present for me.

 

I'm not addicted either...I can stop any time. As a matter of fact, I decided to stop in February...I just haven't chosen what year yet.

I'm going to stop too, right after I win this coin I'm bidding on!

 

Me neither, I have stopped hundreds of times

 

Me too, something to get off of my chest as well...I......also.....collect stamps. Not very actively, but I'm still trying to complete my old album. Back in the day, those stamps were very expensive. Today I can get cool old rarities for cents on the dollar. Imagine if one day all of the coins you ever wanted were on sale for 90% off, would you stop collecting?
