One of the purchases we made in Hong Kong were fake Iwakos. Not because the originals were more expensive, but Iwakos are Japanese and we were in China. So when we brought home the fakeys, wouldn’t you know that the person most interested in them was…..Calin Rose Clifford AKA Competion! It wasn’t Skylar or me — both passionate and avid collectors, but the one who has been trying to rain on our Iwako parade from the beginning! When I went to my display shelf (next to her lame bouncy ball collection) this is what I found!
Of course you are starting an eraser collection BECAUSE nobody wants bouncy balls. I mean…..you can’t just “start” a collection. You really have to think about what to collect, you have to devise your budget, you need to join appropriate clubs, etc. When Skylar and I came up with Iwakos, it wasn’t a rash decision. We knew that we were about to embark on something that had substance to it. Something original. Something special! And then you come in and think you can just buy a few crappy erasers and have a piece. I think NOT! Have you carried your erasers through thick and thin? Have you had them by your side every minute of every day? I ask you…..HAVE YOU SLEPT WITH YOUR ERASERS? And to add insult to injury…… these are the erasers you think you are going to scare us with….dream on Competion!
(Only the ice cream cone is even in the running. The crab is like what a two year old would like. And those lame circle ones are the kind of crap you get when you go to a kids dentist. We are all adults Competion….and until you can decipher (look it up) what that means as a collector, I will see you in passing only!)
