Super noob here. I'm really digging the forum so far, but I'm still becoming familiar with it. So I'm trying to make sense of some of the terms and acronyms that I see used so frequently. I've gleaned that FS and FT are for sale and for trade, but what is ISO referring to? And I can't quite figure out what a "Poster Buddy"/PB is. I looked around and tried to find a thread covering these sorts of colloquialisms, but no luck. Any help would be grand. And if there are other terms I should know, that would be great as well.
So it goes...

ISO = "in search of"
PB = someone who buys the print or original ("OG") in person for you. PB's are requested when there is a show and there is either no online drop, or a later online drop.

P.S. Turn off the drymounting word censoring.
