Your right Tom. We are all right. but there are guys that will split their globes. just because their not true collectors but showmen.
This is just me guys my thoughts. A collector: a guy that goes to all the street fairs, swap meets, gas bashes, estate sales, buys from ebay as he can afford too. researches to find items from old distributors but buys what he likes. has been collecting for years and will not sale anything to a dealer thats going to turn it to make a proffit.
Then you have the showman: and buddy's we have them. that can afford to buy large collections just to say I have that. but he didn't go looking for it, or clean and paint it, or get up ay dawn to wait in line to git into a swap meet. or gas bash. but set back and buy a giant collection and not know anything about an item. well split a globe collection that he just bought to get some of the money back he paid. just to say look at what I have. and its all for sale at the right price. thats why I have all my stuff on disc's so if and when I kick off, the grand daughter, over seen by Ted , can have a large auction if she don't want the stuff. but right now, lets have some fun, do what we can for others. and Help the Hobby.
