    I've seen the abbreviation of NARU or NARU'd used in conjunction with talking about E-bay sellers... Could someone explain to me what this means?


    Also, (I don't know what kind of task this would be), is it possible for some dedicated individual, or individuals, in the know, to maybe make a sticky thread of abbreviations and/or terms used on coin talk, as in a glossary of Abbreviations/terms?

    Maybe individuals could add to it once an entry is cleared with a Mod?

    Thanks for listening to a rambling thought... :p

    I believe NARU stands for "not a registered user", it could me the person has been kicked out. I posted this link once before one here it seems pretty good, I haven't gone through the whole list though. Acronyms used in Coin Collecting

    eBay terminology is "Not A Registered User" for some one removed or suspended. ergo - NARU.

    True there should be one here somewhere. Such Glossaries are available in places like the PCGS web site. Also, even some dealers have them or a link to one. Haven't seen the jmscoins.com web site for a while but there used to be a link to a glossary somewhere. Many coin forums also have links or thier own Glossaries of terminology for coins. Should be one here somewhere.

    You've already read why that is not going to happen.
