Quoted from bigd1979:

Yep thats it im glad its finally out there , I am just so jealous that you are selling alot of nice pins that most people would love to have in their collection but just cant afford or just dont need a pin this nice to enjoy this great hobby bc after all they are just toys .if anything all this nonsense will help you sell your precious pins and get dans name brought to light even more which is always a good thing for all parties envolved bc he does great work that many people may not been aware of before .thank goodness for my insane jealousy for these pins . For the record if I wanted pins this nice I would have them but its not necessary as the pins I own or have owned play just fine for quarter of the price which leaves me money to enjoy my other hobbies and lots of traveling .maybe this is just a pissing contest for you to just throw your money around and say hey look at all my nice restored pins ,but me and many others I know are quite happy playing our less than superior pins according to you and enjoy the hobby just the same
