These are gold! Here's a few more:
...when someone asks you to rank something on a scale of one to ten and you reply with 'near mint-mint'
...when you plan your family's vacation around which city has the best card shops
...when you forget your anniversary, but you can remember the card number of a 1982 Fleer Tug McGraw
...when you carry toploaders in your glovebox in case you buy some cards at a random place and you don't want them damaged on the way home
...when someone asks you if you have a Rusty Kuntz or Dick Pole and you don't get offended

When you're biggest regret from a European vacation is only being able to spend 5-minutes in a card shop you found on a historic tour of Belgium.
...when you come home after a lengthy stay away from your wife and as you're catching up you keep thinking of the packages of cards that arrived while you were gone.
When you sneak a peak at your TCDB email during the pastor's sermon to see if your offer was accepted.

...when you have TCDB open on four devices at the same time.

Kari I am buying pre-1987 Non Sports. Let's discuss if you have any for sale, even if not listed here. --------------------------------------- There are no bad days.

Definitely guilty of the 3rd one and having it work.
....losing your mind swearing you had something somewhere but cannot remember what it was or where it could be but you know you have it somewhere.

When you volunteer to go get the gallon of milk at 8:00 at night because it means you can grab a pack of cards too.
When you have actual debates over astrikes, and glow in the dark ink.
When you find yourself searching for cards you find wholly unappealing because you only need 2 more to complete the set.

....when you wish your daughter would get done with telling you about her day, already, so you can tell her about your latest eBay purchase.
....when you want your team to win the World Series (again) because, sure that would be exciting and all, but then there would be a special edition of World Series Cards that you'd want!

I'm 3 lol
When you know every card number for every set of your favorite player.
1982 Fleer, Tug McGraw is #251. :)
When you have your want list up on one screen and searching on another.
When you have another want list on a spiral notebook in your vehicle. Can't leave home without one.
You know exactly where the dude is at the flea market that has cards and never saw the topless girl running by.
When you drive around to garage sales and just shout out the window to ask "Do you have any Sports cards!" and drive off if the answer is no. You have acquired a bullhorn because you got tired of shouting.
-------------------------------
What is that behind you!?! Oh, It's me! Looking at the cards you have, That I want. :)
