Modifiers preceding the word "rare" in descriptions. Rare is rare; very rare, extremely rare, etc are nonsense.
Sellers who put "rare" in every auction title.

Also quite tired of " . . . rarer than a _____". We get it. Something are very rare, yet there is little demand for them.

Anyone remember the first time you revealed your hobby to the future spouse? Kind of like admitting to a mental illness. I always thought I'd not get the wife because of the cards.

Wednesday I was in the hospital room as my friend died. Her husband was not crying about the 47 years they were married together wishing he had remained single. A "happy wife" doesn't feel like a sacrifice when the happiness comes from a place of love.

I may have shared this story elsewhere on Net 54, but it's appropriate here. It was written by the late stamp dealer Herman Herst, Jr., and while it's technically about stamps, no philatelic knowledge is required to appreciate it... or commiserate with the poor soul.
The customer was a doctor in Brooklyn. He needed a used single of [a very expensive stamp] and asked me to send him one on approval. Since he was a good buyer over the years, always paying promptly and never complaining, I did not hesitate to submit one.Hopefully, none of you who are married or are in long-term committed relationships have a partner like the battleaxe described above.

Adam, IMO, even more nonsensical are the descriptions that state, "very unique."

Stick to your guns, Adam...it's not you; it's them (don't they always say that anyway?). Heard this one a few nights ago: If you put a wife and a dog in your trunk, who's going to be happy to see you when you let them out?

I got divorced in 2003. My ex requested the Princess House crystal and her Beanie Babies. I got the baseball cards.
