    Hey all,

    Been lurking in the background for a couple of weeks, checking things out & getting a feel of the place.

    Only recently gotten into this stacking & hording game, and already, I am addicted. I have already hit Maggie up with an order, and looking at doing some more very soon :D

    A couple of things I have noticed already...

    Man, you gotta be quick in the markets.

    There are LOTS of abbreviations used here. Sorting most of them out, but might have to ask about a few as they come up.

    I LOVE the Panda's and Koalas. This is going to end up being very expensive hobby, I see...

    And while coins are pretty to look at, I dont think there is anything better looking than a nice stack of the shiny stuff.. ;)



    A quick question, if I may...

    Is it normal to start referring to prices in comparison to the price of a bar? Eg: Eldest daughter bought a new car, and my first thought was, I could by 15 kgs for the cost of that....

    And...

    Is it normal to look around the house, and walk around the yard looking at things I can sell to raise some more capital to go & buy the good stuff?



    I can see there is a LOT of experience here, and it looks like a good resource. I plan on spending some very valuable time, and probably money, here.

    See you in the on-line world.

    Basil

    To answer your questions - perfectly normal.
    You now have a new addiction, the rush of locking in and the excitement of receiving your goods will forever consume you, as i said perfectly normal stacker behavior!
    Welcome.
