Geoff Wilson
I don’t understand all that hate that Geoff Wilson seems to get in our hobby.
Absolutely the guy is sometimes cringe, he doesn’t really know that much about vintage, which is sort of embarrassing for a guy his age I believe he’s about 47?, I also believe him opening up a $4 million store was one of the dumbest things in the world (But what do I know I used to think any sort of “vault” would never work and was the worst idea ever)
But the guy brings a ton of energy and thoughts/ideas and News to the forefront and he is not impossible to listen to on podcasts and I think it’s super cool all of the stuff he does. I mean, the guy is sort of living the dream making a living out of our hobby and sharing it with his young kids after having a successful business career. I have to give this guy mad props to be honest
On top of all that positivity - The guy seemed to be a genuinely good guy.
I’m going to stay right now for the record that I’m a fan. And I know many people actually don’t like the guy, but I think that the positives far outweigh the negatives (what r the negatives again???) - and this guy needs to be more appreciated and certainly not vilified. Imo he’s an asset to our hobby not a liability
Thanks for listening!
