    I thought Gene Simmons had the largest Kiss collection. He is his biggest fan.

    Thing is it seems the vast majority of the stuff is 90s and 2000s Spencers gifts stuff ehich doesnt have much financial value. Its the stuff from 73-83 that has all the value. Still pretty awesome though.

      @tshadcovert. You are point on with that.! I had a very large collection of stuff. Most of it from the magic years.! I'm 60 yrs old fan since 75.! I was in an accident and could not work in 2016. I started selling things off and the diffrence in those years made all the diffrence.! I started selling the newer stuff and it was pitiful. As I didn't want to sell what I had as a teenager growing up. But the money was there for the vintage stuff.! Sold some then said screw this and started dealing weed n blow.! Still have lots of vintage stuff and never did any jail time.! On disability now and my room looks like it did at 16 yrs old.! Now then. That's

      @@raymorrow170 awesome my friend. I'm glad you are OK! I'm 33, born in 90. When the reunion was happening around 96, my Dad and his friends were absolutely EXCITED and my Dad began to introduce me to the magic of KISS. I will be eternally grateful for that. Seen them about 5 or 6 times since my first 2 shows(George Washington & Portland Oregon) on the Farewell Tour. KISS played a HUGE part in making me who I am. Real life super heroes! Much love to fellow comrades in the Kiss Army!

    I didn't see very much of the "older" merchandise, the Mego dolls, Rub and Play, etc.
    That stuff is the toughest to get.
    What I saw was a lot of the newer stuff, Spencer's and FYE.
    Pretty nice, none the less.

      TOTALLY AGREE! I am so tired of these people with HUGE collections from HOT TOPIC and TOWER RECORDS in the 2000s. Did he have the MAKE UP Kit from the 1970s ? The Kiss plastic toy guitar in the package ? Kiss record player unused in the box ? Yes, he probably has Funko Pops. LOL. And I don't see any VINTAGE CONCERT POSTERS . Especially pre-1977 posters. I don't collect KISS but I know people who do. Did this guy even have the pinball machine ?

    I have no issue with people that collect stuff. It's just that when it's JUNK from Hot Topic and Spencer Gifts -- who cares. Totally different if he has all the Mego Kiss dolls from 1978 in the boxes in mint shape. Or other fan club stuff from 1976. But to just go out to a mall and buy new crap from the 2000's . who cares.
