Alternately 'out of production', in the case of miniatures. Out of print is more common elsewhere, because, well, books/comics/etc go out of print a lot.

nope, although NIB means New In Box or New In Blister, which would be the opposite of out of package.
That said, this would better be placed in the misc messages section

Also, it can refer to the stuff in GW's classic range, for some reason, all the crap they have lying around is supposed to be worth more since they couldn't sell it at the old price,
but, yeah, OOP out of print(publication, production)
MIB mint in box
NIB new in box
MOC mint on card(not as applicable here)
MISB mint in sealed box(shrink wrap matters, afterall)
Umm, did I miss anything, oh yeah
Loose(hehe) means I have the pices loose, I suppose like loose from their blister prison, or cardboard dungeon,

Wasn't somebody putting together a commonly used acronym/phrase list or am I hallucinating again?

Yeah, I never could figure that out. They've fostered such a "MUST HAVE NEWEST EDITION" mentality that it's bloody impossible to sell older stuff of theirs.

I actually care for quite a bit of their older stuff. PM me if you're looking to offload some of yours, I'll let you know if you have anything I'm interested in.
