Shotzy13. I deleted the poster that you found offensive. Didn't want to offend anyone. But rather make the point that, eventually all collections come up for sale. That is a fact.

What is the purpose of trying to create conspiracy theories or whatever by trying to speculate in a public forum why they are being sold.

Could be one of a million personal reasons. Least of which is trying to figure out a current market evaluation for insurance purposes.

Plain and simple; Why, can't we just accept the fact, that an owner has decided to part with a collection and has chosen to use e-Bay to sell it.

Dave, I was just simply asking if that was possible... nothing more, try not to over-read the post. would you rather i post meaninglessly, like 'nice collection' - this is a discussion forum

I know a local collector who recently lost part of his collection due to a barn fire, & in order to cover his collection on insurance he needed documented proof of current market value. I was just toying with the idea that doing this on ebay might be an easy & quick way to get that evaluation.

no conspiracy theory intended, lol... but now you managed to upset & offend another member, nice work.

I'm just enjoying watching the sale of such a large collection.
Its currently at $44544.00 and that is just $332 per globe, so theres plenty of room for more money. I wonder if it will sell?

Sold $45,000
Here is some eye candy.

Never sold. It didn't hit the reserve.
Looked like a nice collection though
