I've reached the point that I'm going to have to sell most of my Marx figures. I don't have anything extra special, but have a few customs along with the regular guys/gals and horses. I've been anal (as a firstborn) about getting vintage accessories for vintage figures, but a few do have CXR accessories to fill them out. If anyone has something that they're looking for, please contact me ( eric@cantlonotterness.com ) because I'd rather see these folks go to a good home instead of to just anyone out there in cyber space. Thanks, folks!

Hey Eric. So sorry to hear this - with a relatively few number of JW collectors out there, it hurts to see anyone 'go'. You've been a great advocate of the hobby so it hurts even more! I know you've likely thought of all your options so I won't ask, other than to say - if possible, you might be able to 'suspend' your JW activities, keep your collection, and then return to us in a while... I've just seen sometimes where a person 'comes back' after a couple of years and regrets the selling off phase. Given the current marketing climate values are pretty low at this point so it will likely cost much more to replace them in the future than you'll get for them now.
Whatever you decide, please know that I, for one, appreciate all you do for the hobby and your friendship with Noah and Terri - I know they really appreciate you.
So if this is truly goodbye, I wish you "Happy Trails" and if not, then here's to seeing you again around the campfire!
Scott

Thanks for the kind words and the advice, Scott. Not leaving here (haven't have much to say lately but I read every day), just "circumstances" regarding the collection. I appreciate everyone's friendship AND the help down at the stalls...

Sorry to hear it, Eric. I can hardly bear to even think about it, but that time may be coming for us soon too. If the cost of living doesn't stop skyrocketing out of control, Pam & I will be lucky to keep any of our collections. Best wishes to you, friend.
