Does Fred Lindsey from DesMoines still collect?
If so I know he had over 10,000 in his collection.
Back in late 90's there were lots of collectors... it seems many have sold out or passed away.

No kidding!  Happy New Year, Roger.  I still have your spare HandQuake you sold me almost 10 years ago.  For sure, if you have a better camera now you should capture some of those old classic woods you have and put them in the wood thread.  Didn't you used to have your collection up on a website somewhere?

I had a web page when i had AOL. No More. Nice to see some of the old faces.
Fred Lindsey I think passes. His son sold out his collection. i bought a few. But that was quite a few years ago.
Kinda miss the Yos.

I'm also wondering where you got those wall cases.  I've been looking for something nice to put some of my favorites up, but I've been having trouble.

Thanks.

Yeah, I've seen those, but the description says the interior depth is only 1.25 inches.  So it would  really only work for loopers.  I would want at least a 2.5 inch depth so I could store my yoyo's on the side or on the rims.
