I think he retired more or less. There was a thread about it a long time ago. Said you could be a collector or a seller but not both, and it was causing problems.

HE WENT BANKRUPT. Many people lost tens of thousands. Like so many before him, he wanted to take over the diecast world. He was a great salesman, just didn't know how to run a business. CAW

Yeah, Steve I was told that he was in Florida. But now I hear he's back in town. Don't know, don't care. He had so much potential.. You cannot collect these high price models and pay for them by selling on Ebay. Chuck knows how hard it is to run this kind of business. Roy Ferguson was great at it. He kept it manageable. Brandon at Buffalo Road know the business better than anyone. There are other, smaller dealers that barely make a living at it. But if you are going to sell, don't collect too.
