The stuff presented here is a sort of webporium of the stuff I have collected over the years. It is, dare I say it, my own personal Museum of Pop Culture and if like me you have nothing better to do feel free to browse around. I have been an collector for years especially after the wife left and there was no one here to stop me. I even collected as a kid but we didn’t call it that back then (that’s not me pictured right but an actor pretending to be me).
I remember setting up shop and selling some of my stuff in garage sales which was really stupid because if I had kept it, today that stuff would be worth a fortune and all I got was nickel or two. So, I decided to go to Morganville, which is what they called Shelbyville in those days and I tied an onion to my belt, which was the style at the time. Now, to take the ferry cost a nickel, and in those days, nickels had pictures of bumblebees on ’em. “Give me five bees for a quarter,” you’d say. Now where were we? Oh yeah..
Now a days collecting stuff has become popular. Some even call us Pickers which is much better than hoarders or that weird guy down the street. Unlike hoarders us serious Pickers and/or Collectors like to organize and display our stuff not just let it pile up in a corner (don’t look over there). So one day, I think it was a Tuesday, I built this site as a way to catalogue all My Neat Stuff. I didn’t plan to sell anything but then someone said they would like to buy that thing. And I said it’s not for sale. Then they said name your price. So I said some really high stupid price. They didn’t buy it but I didn’t want to sell it anyway. After that I decided that some stuff would be for sale and you can spot that stuff from the Add To Cart button.
Prices are based on the going rates found in various books and publications and what I see other people selling similar stuff for on the Internet. (Pictured above… again is not me but the great actor Rene Auberjonois.)
If you are interested in starting your own collection of Neat Stuff, and who wouldn’t be? You can start by visiting your local comic shop. If you don’t have a local comic shop you can go to garage and yard sales or steal toys from your children. Another way is to visit The Big Store where you will find lots of cool links to the latest Neat Stuff available on the world wide intertubes for your Dining, Dancing and Shopping pleasure. The links on our Big Store page will take you to other websites.
Purchasing My Neat Stuff
My Neat Stuff is hosted at Red Cabbages (no, they don’t sell cabbages so stop asking), partnered with Kasey and Company and set up and managed through the legal and accounting firm of Hungadunga, Hungadunga, Hungadunga, & McCormick. Wait I left out a Hungadunga. I left out the main one too. Which follows is nasty letter from our accountants confusing the situation:
In re yours of the fifteenth, yours to hand and made to rep, brackets, that we have gone over the ground carefully and we seem to believe, i.e., to wit, e.g., in lieu, that, uh, despite all our precautionary measures which have been involved, uh, we seem to believe that it is hardly necessary for us to proceed unless we, uh, receive an ipso facto that is not negligible at this moment, quotes, unquotes and quotes. Uh. Hoping this finds you, I beg to remain… as of June 9, cordially yours. Regards. Make two carbon copies and throw the original away.
We strive for accuracy in all our listings but we are only human and have been called worse by an exwife, so our lawyers (the second Mr Hungadunga to be precise) whould like us to include the following legal mumbo jumbo. Something about prices subject to change without notice and we are not responsible for any wrong information or pricing posted on the web site. Apparently this gets us off the hook in case of a typo. So if an item is worth $50 but is mistakenly listed for $5, chances are you won’t get it for five, unless of course we miss the mistake entirely in which case good for you. If we catch it you’ll have the option of purchasing the item in question at the actual price or getting a refund. Which we will give you cheerfully, and you can’t ask for much more than that.
