Not to continue the off topic rant, but just to say that Kohalacharms is a nice guy. He does contact various people to trade mugs rather than just buy on Ebay. He does not post here because he is too well known through Ebay and all too often can't get to talk to people for them asking how much he makes, etc. That, and he just does not have the time. You'll notice he does not snipe. He does not have the time to watch the auctions end and snipe. He is a lucky individual who has more time than money. If you or I were busy and had money, we'd likely do the same thing.

What's the difference in his collection and many others here? I never see most of the folks on this board's stuff.

He searches out the good stuff and bids. Then other people see his name and bid the price up. That's not fair. And when I get two great mugs and put one on Ebay, I am glad for guys like him who pay for the good stuff.

Rants like that are not going to get these big Ebay spenders on this board.
