On the way we visited KC. We met him through eBay bidding. Over the years we have traded mugs, made deals not to outbid each other and sent "look what's up" emails. He is so honest and trustworthy, yep just one of the nicest guys ever, it hurts to read a criticism of him. We enjoy going to his home to see the collection. He lets us photograph anything we want. He, his wife and daughter make us feel really special. I don't begrudge him anything. I just feel good for the seller who got a decent price for the tiki treasure they let go. I know his collection is beyond belief. Does he have a photobucket album or any such thing, so I can really put my Tiki envy into high gear? I'd love to somehow see his collection. I'd be a little miffed if KC was buying everything up & then trying to price gouge the rest of us, but he's not. He's obviously as passionate about this stuff as anyone on the planet & he truly enjoys collecting. I don't know the guy from a hole in the wall, but he seems to be collecting "for all the right reasons" if you will. I don't begrudge him anything. I just want to see his stuff! :lol:
