Oh The Excitement!

I actually ordered several things online and I was so excited I just started ripping open packages looking for the thing I was most excitedly expecting. And there she was. My very first bar. Didn't know how to react really. I just kind of stared at it like you do on the fourth or a holiday where they do a fireworks show. Oohs and aahs. So here it is, my first shiny.

The Flip

Then of course I had to flip it over, to see what kind of stamp it had smashed on the back. Neat design for what it is. I know it's not from a well known mint, or maybe it is? I honestly have no idea, I'm still crazy new to this whole stackin thing. Which then, begs the question, where are some good places to get shiny shit at my peoples??

The Feel

Of course I had to play with it. Hold it. Squeeze it. Love it. Give it a few kisses before putting it up for safe keeping. She got tucked away with the other spiffy shinys @goldenarms recently sent me. Thanks again my man. I'll have a nice collection soon enough!

Special Guest Appearance

As I was putting her up, this other thing said, "Hey, remember me? Been feeling kinda lonely up here." So I had to bring her pretty little self out briefly for everyone to enjoy. @phelimint card and all. The 2017 Steem Silver Round. Ain't she just a beauty?

As a new member, I hope this is a suitable post to satisfy your cravings. Think that stackitus is rooting itself in my bones. I've always been a collector of fine things. Coins, cards, fishing gear, guns, wine...of course, the wine doesn't seem to last as long the other things for some reason. Bwahahahaha! Steem on my peoples!

Great to see you stackin' @enginewitty! I'd like to recommend that @phelimint business card that you have in your hand, for some cool pieces and limited edition stuff. Don't tell anyone, but he takes Steem as payment at final checkout!

Now, why didn't anyone else say that? Kudos to you!

@thealliance because @phelimint is too modest and doesn't want to mix business with pleasure maybe....too late haha. He can't stop me from endorsing him, "I Know My Rights!" ๐Ÿ˜Š
Phil and Eli @ejr are top notch!

Thx's @jbcoin, it is super easy to order with steem with us. We advertise once in a while, but your right it's not our main focus.

Haha...you guys are awesome @phelimint. Now that I realize how busy you are I almost feel bad ordering silver and making you pack it all up and ship it ๐Ÿ˜”
Ok I'm over it. Get that stuff on da road haha!

ps. dont hate one me for taking so long but i just voted u as a witness LOL

Well thank you sweets ๐Ÿ˜Š

You're hooked now. It starts with one, then another one, then maybe 3 next time. Then you're burrying boxes full in your garden then...

lol! And then the root cellar is half tricked out with hiding spots... (I don't have a root cellar, but if I did...)

Totally gonna have a scavenger map before it's all said and done my man.

That early onset of stackitus buddy!!! It gets in your blood, your bones... everywhere!! Once you got it, it never leaves!!

I feel ya on the wine collecting.. I collect wine too... I have 2 bottles left though..lol!!!! Not a good investment in my house. Luckily I have started stacking silver too!!

Good thing I can't drink silver! LOL

nice man, looks like you caught the bug! Silvertown is pretty well known but that's a cool bar. If you looking for more I suggest JMbullion or Apmex, those are i think the two biggest in the US, although being in Canada I have never ordered from them personally.

Thanks bro, I will def check into them and see what all they got :)

My first silver purchase was a feeling of relief knowing I have something of enduring value rather than a piece of paper claiming to to have value only to lose it year after year. The first onset of "STACKITIS" or perhaps more accurately Obsessive Silver Compulsive Behavior OSCB.

LMAO OSCB, love it.

Other related forms,
Obsessive Silver Collecting Behavior - Usually Numismatists
Obsessive Silver Compounding Bullion - Usually Pure Silver Stackers, applies equally with the gold type. OGCD.

Gold...be my step soon. Gonna get a good chunk of this silvery stuff piled up for the heirlooms. Then do the same on the yellow bricks.

I should really show these on a Flow Chart, a fascinating study in human thinking.

Ah, the wonderfully satisfying weight of silver in your hand. Nice. And I love that STEEM coin. Time to celebrate!

Can't wait to see who wins the design contest!

I know! Some incredible designs in the running.

Oh boy! Your in it now EW! Stackitis and all!

Already looking for more :P

Awesome man. Next we gotta get you a poured piece ๐Ÿ‘

Oh man I saw that Falcon you poured up the other day...that would be my first request.
