Meeting with world class collectors like this gentleman and his wife is a nice variation on picking hoarder houses. The loving care, time, and money needed to collect, preserve, and display these collections is remarkable. I thought I was a bit obsessive compulsive about completing "sets" of things but in this case it's both the husband and wife with a similar drive. All I can say is wow. Most impressive visit you've done so far. Thanks.
I’m glad I’m not the only one admiring how clean everything is. I would think he has high quality air filters to minimize the dust. I noticed Alex didn’t have his shoes on. They must have rules and protocols to keep everything pristine.
@@patriciageorge2531 What does that have to do w/this channel or what brings us to this site? What a person does w/their hard earned 💲 is no one's business but theirs. No one owes u or anyone else ANYTHING in life!
@Single w/cheese @aly shep I am very well aware that it’s none of our business! But AZRAEL felt that the money spent would have been better spent by toys for children. I was just pointing out to him that we don’t know what philanthropic actions he has taken.
I loved it. My son that I lost 5 1/2 years ago loved his Legos. It was fun to see how he would enjoy watching this collection. I have kept many of them, which will go to my daughter. Many of the toys looked familiar from the 70’s and 80’s. Thank you for sharing your collection, Sir💕. Alex, please share these videos as often as you can. 😁
Thank you to the guy who shared his collection with us!!! I feel like I've been to a museum. Love this episode! Maybe more people like this would like to share their collections with you to show to us.
Wow. Just wow. I can’t imagine cleaning this house. I think Alex get invited to these home because you can feel his excitement going through the house.
WOW, I didn't know there were that many toys of any kind in existence, much less all in one place. This guy is amazing yet amazing seems too small a word. His collection is worth millions and more millions, and well... still more millions but I bet it's worth every penny to him. (Sheesh) Alexander, the people you meet. Jason looked 'jaw dropped in awe' at all that eye candy and Alexander... well bug-eyed doesn't cover it either. 👍🏽 Surprised... yep, definitely that. WOW, an astonishingly meticulous grand collection.
@@tillerfn8484 so as I watched I wondered about their grandchildren! I as a grandparent myself though hmm I wouldn’t dare bring my grandchildren there!!! I was pleased though to see him pull out a couple of tubs that were ready and waiting to be played with! I just had three of mine over for the evening and that is challenging in an apartment but I must say easier than it would be at your grandparents home! Also I had five boys and then two girls with our 21st grandchild due this Mar.
@@viviannefraser5974 yah the house does seem like it wouldn’t be very good for kids but it is almost like Disney land there is toys everywhere and so many fun things to do outside every summer we have a big party there with slip in slides and fireworks kids dont mess the house up because it has those baby gate things leading to all the areas so the younger kids can’t get there
What a fantastic collection! Cant call this hoarding with it being so neat and tidy! If his place were easily accessable he could charge admission as a museum! "A collection like no other" is an understatement!
That was incredible. I think the most impressive thing to me is how organized and nice they managed it keep it all! And I agree with Jason - that Lego room was awesome. I may have seen more impressive rooms of built legos, but never anything quite like that - it really did look like a Lego store. So cool.
Chad, I think that is the most impressive thing, as well. Anybody can collect 'stuff', but showcasing it in a neat and orderly way is a skill in itself. I see a lot of inheritance funds in that home ;)
@@barliegirl5374 I see masses and masses of work for the kids in that family when the time comes. You would have to send it all to auction I would think. I am impressed with the NO DUST on anything. That place is so massive the beginning would be dusty again by the time you got to the end.
@@traceyhuntstreasure2890 The lack of dust was pretty impressive. I fear that I would end up not even going into some of those rooms for months at a time and the upkeep would get away from me!
Holy Moly what an amazing keeper of things he is! I think if he was born in a different era he would've been a bonafide treasure hunter. How cool and his house alone was a jawdropper!
I grew up on a dairy farm in the 50's and 60's. We had several large crocks. One was used for sauerkraut but many of the larger ones were used to preserve pork when we butchered in the fall. The meat would cut up, salted and then the melted lard would be poured over to seal and preserve it without freezing or refrigeration. I believe the largest crock was like 50 gallons.
Unbelievable collections. I am blown away at the vast amount of stuff. Absolutely crazy. I want to know how they keep it all clean and dust free. That in itself would be a full time job!
This collection was incredible and so well displayed, I want to thank the owner for sharing this tour with us , I was completely shocked and impressed.
What an amazing collection! What amazed me even more was how clean everything was, I couldn't see a speck of dust anywhere on the items or shelves. It must take someone ages to do. I particularly liked the pink kitchen!
What an outstanding education on history of life in the 20th century! Extend my respect and thanks to your new friends. Excellent video. Congratulations, Wally
That collection was beyond BELIEF !! Unbelievable. I can not imagine the amount of time and money that it took to put that whole collection together....Has to be a World Record collection of everything.....Amazing!! Loved the tour. THANK YOU for letting me dream.
WOW! Thank you to that family for allowing y'all to come in and tour it! A lot of the items were not things I would collect, but even with that I very incredibly impressed by them all and it was wonderful to view! It was simply meticulous. And so clean! The display and organization was incredible. We were so impressed during the whole video.
This was, by far, the most amazing collector you've come across that we have had the pleasure to watch. That Lego room brought back SO MANY MEMORIES from when I was growing up in the 80's and 90's and playing with them. I hope that he continues to find complete sets and have his collection grow even more. As for the hidden room - that pink diner area was simply fantastic!
A bit of OCD...And compulsive 'hoarding'...or ' collecting'...onlynly neater and more meticulously presented...but still hoarding.... to s point.. My immense collections are inconsequential by comparison.
Spectacular. Thank you for showing us around this amazing toy collection. I have never seen anything like this in my life. This was totally amazing. It brought back so many memories of my childhood. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. God bless you and your family
Wow, I have never seen anything like Benny's collection. What a treat to have graced your viewers with such an oasis of nostalgia. I saw things I had long forgotten about. I will be watching this one again so I can catch what I missed on the shelves. Thank you so much!
His GI Joe display brought back childhood memories for me. So many of my GI Joes and accessories went to Germany for my younger cousins to enjoy. As I had outgrown them and was into my Guitars then
AWESOME collection that Benny has! Thank you for sharing that tour with us!! Thank Benny, too, for sharing! I loved seeing how truly wonderful collecting can be!! When done correctly, it's actually collecting, NOT hoarding! Benny's family home is not just a home, it's a comfy museum!! Loved it!!
Wow! I kept thinking about all the time and dedication that went into making all these rooms filled with wonders of youth. Truly appreciate that the owners were willing to allow you to film. Had I been there it would have been hard to get me out of the room with all the crystals, stones and minerals. Wonderful collections!
This was a truly fun trip! I saw my tot sized walking doll from 1962 with the brown hair, Teri (named after my big brother) with whom I shared my wardrobe for about a year, then Teri rarely got new clothes!
What a great trip out to a wonderful home ( the views! ) to meet a lovely couple and enjoy looking round all the things they've collected! Lovely Sunday for me watching this vlog! XXX
Fantastic! Thank you for taking us along. I hope their collections are always together -- a future toy museum perhaps? Years from now. I love too that they think of the grandchildren when putting it all together...definitely a magical place for them to grow up in! Thanks again Alex for taking us with you. Now to go check out my brother's old Lego kits!
OOOOOOMMMMMGGGGGG, not even half way into the video……what a nice couple to invite you (us) into their home and take a tour of their collection. 😳 Amazing, thank you 😊
All your kids are a beautiful mix of you & Melissa. The boys are handsome as heck & Abigail is beautiful. You & Melissa have such a wonderful family. You're raising great kids, I can't wait to see them as they grow.
I would have loved to see more, slower, and with the commentary from him. He clearly is very knowledgeable about it all and would have had a lot to teach us. Does he have any social media accounts where he shares his collection? There was so much that was glossed over and I’m dying to know about!!
@@sharonkaufmann3992 It's not the dialogue. It's moving the camera around so quickly that you can't ever really see anything in detail. And also, with all due respect, that Alex prefers to talk about what HE likes to talk about rather than letting the gentleman share his own stories and information about all these collections that are being shown. Slowing down the speed of the video won't change any of that. But thank you for the suggestion. :)
@@scrapgirl82 Not to beat a dead horse but if you slow the video you'll get a longer look at what's being filmed. I don't care about what ALEX is babbling about! 😏
LOL I get what you’re saying. And I will pause so I can take closer looks. But I wanted to hear from the owner and hear HIS stories about his collection. Which is why I asked if anyone knew if he had his collection anywhere on social media so I could check it out in my detail. I know not everyone is interested in the same things and Alex can focus on whatever he wants to focus on in his own videos. But I’d like to hear from folks who have interests other than oil cans and cars LOL.
I am with Jason. That Lego collection was awesome. I grew up playing them with my brother and with my nieces and nephew and i still have a few pieces myself. Legos are one toy you cannot get tired of no matter your age lol. As for the book collection. I would be surprised to find out that he does not have the Trixie Belden series as well. I am a reader since before i was a year old and lived for books and the libraries! My grams and mother used to tell me i was born with a book in my hands and sneakers on my feet lol. I missed the crawl stage and went straight into running, so i have been told lol. I would be lost in that house. I have bits and pieces of a lot of stuff that he has there. Beautiful collection for sure!
This is absolutely brilliant... totally unbelievable! What an amazing opportunity to also meet the collector... usually collections like this come to light after the owner has passed. Excellent video Alex... thank you to this gentleman for sharing his life's passion. On a side note... I'd dread having to do the dusting!
Oh wow. Like wow. I love all the stuff he had but even more I loved the way he had it clean and organized and such. It was like a museum, in a good way. So yeah this whole video was awesome. Thank you for showing this. It was wow.
How amazingly awesome of a collection. His house looks like a collectors museum! Thanks to him for allowing you to share this magnificent collection with us.
😲😲😲I cannot believe this collection! So many different collections! And this definitely has got to be the most clean and organized collection out there! Love love love the secret closets and so many hidden areas! One thing for sure is that I would NOT want to be the one who has to dust these. Yikes! 😲😲😲
All I can say is what a collection plus a collectors dream. Its an amazingly beautiful set up to be able to collect for years and years to have a special placement of these ideas.. Glad you got something and Pyrex is pretty collectable.. Hope those were for Melissa. Hint: LOL throwing you on the spotlight Alex.
What an amazing collection! Those geodes and crystals makes my little thunder egg look like it's nothing! Oh and the Coleman PQ!!! (too bad it's missing it's shades) Thanks for taking us along, and thanks to Benny for letting us see it too.
Absolutely astonishing collection and home. I just love the shelving and how it's all specifically sized for what they're displaying. What a very creative and talented gentleman. And 200 acres.... wow... so lucky. Thanks to Benny and you Alex for sharing with us.
Wow. My brothers and my son had so many of these. Enjoyed seeing them again. Brings back happy memories. Hearing the passion for these in the gentleman’s voice is so special. Thanks for sharing.
What an amazing tour Alex. From the breathtaking view outside to the diversity of their collection. The rocks were my favorite, such beauty in nature. It is amazing the people you meet. I bet your mind was whirling about putting some of those features in your house.
So impressed with not only his cool book collection and other collections, but how they’re displayed is fantastic! His taxidermy is beautiful! Great vid! Enjoying it so much!
Man, it is like a museum. I love when you visit these private collections. I really think it would make a great spin-off channel. It would absolutely fly on television.
That's amazing! I love that we are all so different! Collecting isn't something I'm at all interested in, but man oh man, if I did want to collect, it would be like how he does it. His eye for display is amazing!
Totally unbelievable! I’m absolutely speechless with the volume of items he so vigilantly collected over the years! It’s all so perfect and clean too…that’s a lot of dusting…unbelievable!! 🏹🎯
This is honestly the coolest, most amazing collectible home I've ever seen. That hidden room with the diner hop set is UNREAL! I could spend hours look around. So much fun!!
The collections that this gentleman had are unreal. The nostalgia started at the beginning with the Nancy Drew and Hardy Boys books. My two older brothers had a full set of Hardy Boys and my mother started collecting Nancy Drew before I could read. (I was born in 1959). But I was reading them all as soon as I could read chapter books. My brothers are 6 and 7 yrs older than me, so they had their books well before I got to read them. The rock and mineral collection was a dream collection for me. She had gorgeous specimens. The amethyst is my favorite, it is my birthstone. You were so lucky to be invited to their home and to tour all the things that have been kept in such good condition.
So mind boggling it's hard to process. I think my favorite items were the red handled kitchen tools, I think he said were his mother's, and the glass room at the end that we only got a peek at. I know you love toys and he has an overwhelming amount!
That was a terrific video Alexander. What a collection! Over the moon OCD, but still cool. Nice to see your son and you sharing time together. You're a good Dad and I enjoy your skilled adventures in pursuit of progressive life goals. ✊ Warm wishes to the entire family. 🥰
That was amazing! When I worked for Toys R Us we would often have collectors who wanted to purchase displays, you are correct it was mandated by the manufacturer how they were disposed of. We had a list of which displays we 'owned' and which were provided by the vendor.
So funny what everyone noticed and loved. For me, the book room. I was a Bobbsey Twins fan. So, I instantly saw the binding of the book. Seemed like Benny had a few, maybe 3. But, I understand they aren’t very collectible. I have several BT books because it was a series I could get lost in. To this day, I love a great mystery-detective read and I am 68 years old. Thank you Benny and wife for opening up your home so that many, many thousands of viewers could appreciate the most incredible personal collections we have ever seen! WOW!
What an absolutely incredible collection. It’s really neat to see how the collector displays their collection. I love this kind of tour. Thank you for sharing their story with us!
Wow is right, I loved the tour of their collections. Thanks Alex for making this fantastic video. Special thanks to Benny and his wife for sharing with us all, the beauty in all your treasures, so perfectly displayed.
What a collection! Thanks so much to the ownder for sharing it with us. I recognised so many things from my own childhood and things I bought for my son [e'g the Fisher Price garage]. At 22:49 is a Red Tonka truck. I have the same one. I bought it at a church jumble sale in Sheffield, UK in the mid 1970's. I was 14 and just loved the look of it. I still do... it's sitting only a few feet away from me now, on the mantlepiece.
Loved this video. I LOVED seeing a real serious collectors stuff...absolutely pristine material and his means of displaying them is fantastic. Truely special! Way better than any museum. This is a "do NOT touch" collection, pristine stuff.
🌟🌟🌟Speechless I think is the word I'm trying to say but I'm speechless!!!🌟🌟🌟 Benny, Thank you for letting us into your world. What a show!! There couldn't possibly be a collection out there on this entire planet that could compare to yours. 🌟🌟🌟WOW!!!🌟🌟🌟
Wow, this was the most amazing house and collection I have ever seen. All so organized & pristine! their grandkids must be in heaven when they come to visit. What a carpenter too..those display cases ..wow!!! I really enjoyed seeing all this! Thanks for sharing your collection with us ! :)
That was a jaw-dropping home! I can't imagine what his insurance must cost. I hope his kids and grandkids appreciate these treasures collected so lovingly.
I feel like I’ve bid against this guy back in the day on some of the little people items! He’s got it all! Most of the stuff I collected ended up being played with by my daycare kids over the years so they’re not in the best condition. My prized item is the ‘A’ frame house. I have an ‘A’ frame cabin and the fisher price version sits proudly on a custom made birch tree book shelf. This was probably one of my favorite episodes to date! Amazing collection!!!
You have no luck bidding against rich people and sadly Ebay allows the use of Bots who bid for you and no person has a chance of winning against them unless they bid higher than the person using the bot is willing to go. I think it is disgusting that such things even exist. Aside from that Yes this is the most amazing collection of assorted items I have ever seen.
@@traceyhuntstreasure2890 I enjoyed my eBay auction stage of life lol. I haven’t bid on anything in years but did get a lot of cool stuff over the years. I’ve never tried listing anything on eBay. Is it still as popular as it used to be?
This house was amazing! He must have one of the largest, best condition toy collections in the world. Everything looked like new. Thank you for taking us along!
I thought the guy withe the Corvette collection was awesome but this guy has topped anyone you've shown us so far. I'm impressed.. wow wow wow.
I agree!
Ægææååååååååuæuuu
I’m thinking more on the border of a manic, but organized, hoarder. I wonder what emotions he’s running from.
This guy has pretty much topped the entire world. This house should be turned into a museum.
This is my Dad's house. He didn't tell us he was doing this! What a great surprise 🙂
Wow, your childhood must have been amazing!
He wasn't as huge a collector back then, but it was a wonderful childhood
Who dusts all those shelves!! That’s a lot of work!!!
Stunning truely amazing
How cool to have parents that have such awesome collections!!

Most impressive visit you've done so far. Thanks.
My sentiments exactly. I would pay money to tour a place like this if it were open to the public.
How on earth does he and his wife keep the many collections dust free? Everything looked spotless. Wow is all I can say.
I’m glad I’m not the only one admiring how clean everything is. I would think he has high quality air filters to minimize the dust. I noticed Alex didn’t have his shoes on. They must have rules and protocols to keep everything pristine.
Maybe that is how he gained his wealth, air purifiers!
What I noticed after the wow! Was how clean everything is. That must be a full time job. LOVE the home, so beautiful!
Swiffer dusters.
This is all I could think about!! Dusting would be soooooo time consuming.
YES I’m thinking 🤔 how do you keep it all dusted?😳WOW it’s beyond amazing.
You’re right, Alex, it IS a insane collection! The thing that impressed me the most is that someone actually dusts all that stuff!
That was my first thought , who diets all this thing's?
Ditto. They must need a full time crew to keep it all dusted.
I don’t think I’ve ever been so impressed with a collector and his displays! So awesome!
@UCF8ohvugw4Rf-naPykttXVg and we don’t know if he has also shared his wealth outside the family through donations of money, time or skill.

LOL I get what you’re saying. And I will pause so I can take closer looks. But I wanted to hear from the owner and hear HIS stories about his collection. Which is why I asked if anyone knew if he had his collection anywhere on social media so I could check it out in my detail. I know not everyone is interested in the same things and Alex can focus on whatever he wants to focus on in his own videos. But I’d like to hear from folks who have interests other than oil cans and cars LOL.
I am with Jason. That Lego collection was awesome. I grew up playing them with my brother and with my nieces and nephew and i still have a few pieces myself. Legos are one toy you cannot get tired of no matter your age lol. As for the book collection. I would be surprised to find out that he does not have the Trixie Belden series as well. I am a reader since before i was a year old and lived for books and the libraries! My grams and mother used to tell me i was born with a book in my hands and sneakers on my feet lol. I missed the crawl stage and went straight into running, so i have been told lol. I would be lost in that house. I have bits and pieces of a lot of stuff that he has there. Beautiful collection for sure!
This is absolutely brilliant... totally unbelievable! What an amazing opportunity to also meet the collector... usually collections like this come to light after the owner has passed. Excellent video Alex... thank you to this gentleman for sharing his life's passion.
On a side note... I'd dread having to do the dusting!
Oh wow. Like wow. I love all the stuff he had but even more I loved the way he had it clean and organized and such. It was like a museum, in a good way. So yeah this whole video was awesome. Thank you for showing this. It was wow.
How amazingly awesome of a collection. His house looks like a collectors museum! Thanks to him for allowing you to share this magnificent collection with us.
😲😲😲I cannot believe this collection! So many different collections! And this definitely has got to be the most clean and organized collection out there! Love love love the secret closets and so many hidden areas! One thing for sure is that I would NOT want to be the one who has to dust these. Yikes! 😲😲😲
All I can say is what a collection plus a collectors dream. Its an amazingly beautiful set up to be able to collect for years and years to have a special placement of these ideas.. Glad you got something and Pyrex is pretty collectable.. Hope those were for Melissa. Hint: LOL throwing you on the spotlight Alex.
Holy cow!!! You should have titled this, "How to be an orderly horder." 😂 What a collection of collections! That Lego room alone was to die for!
What an amazing collection! Those geodes and crystals makes my little thunder egg look like it's nothing! Oh and the Coleman PQ!!! (too bad it's missing it's shades) Thanks for taking us along, and thanks to Benny for letting us see it too.
Absolutely astonishing collection and home. I just love the shelving and how it's all specifically sized for what they're displaying. What a very creative and talented gentleman. And 200 acres.... wow... so lucky. Thanks to Benny and you Alex for sharing with us.
Wow. My brothers and my son had so many of these. Enjoyed seeing them again. Brings back happy memories. Hearing the passion for these in the gentleman’s voice is so special. Thanks for sharing.
What an amazing tour Alex. From the breathtaking view outside to the diversity of their collection. The rocks were my favorite, such beauty in nature. It is amazing the people you meet. I bet your mind was whirling about putting some of those features in your house.
One word “WOW”. That is an absolutely AMAZING collection. 💖💖
Oh, those books!! And the Legos!!! Lovely, Lovely! 😍😍
So impressed with not only his cool book collection and other collections, but how they’re displayed is fantastic! His taxidermy is beautiful! Great vid! Enjoying it so much!
Man, it is like a museum. I love when you visit these private collections. I really think it would make a great spin-off channel. It would absolutely fly on television.
That's amazing! I love that we are all so different! Collecting isn't something I'm at all interested in, but man oh man, if I did want to collect, it would be like how he does it. His eye for display is amazing!
OMG - an *organized* eccentric hoarder!!
Truly a fantastic collection of collections. Very eclectic yet striving for completion in diverse categories.
Thanks Alexander for sharing your tour
Totally unbelievable! I’m absolutely speechless with the volume of items he so vigilantly collected over the years! It’s all so perfect and clean too…that’s a lot of dusting…unbelievable!! 🏹🎯
That's Amazing! How fun for the whole family! What a wonderful museum right in your own home!
This is honestly the coolest, most amazing collectible home I've ever seen. That hidden room with the diner hop set is UNREAL! I could spend hours look around. So much fun!!
There was a time when it took a day to get this many views. Now it takes sixteen minutes. Awesome video once again. 👏
The collections that this gentleman had are unreal. The nostalgia started at the beginning with the Nancy Drew and Hardy Boys books. My two older brothers had a full set of Hardy Boys and my mother started collecting Nancy Drew before I could read. (I was born in 1959). But I was reading them all as soon as I could read chapter books. My brothers are 6 and 7 yrs older than me, so they had their books well before I got to read them. The rock and mineral collection was a dream collection for me. She had gorgeous specimens. The amethyst is my favorite, it is my birthstone. You were so lucky to be invited to their home and to tour all the things that have been kept in such good condition.
Wow 🤩 that was so amazing!!
Thank you Alex and Jason for taking us 🥰
I am loving these collectors and their amazing personal museums! Incredible.
I have been here a few times and it is the most amazing house I've been to. No one believes me when I tell them about it but now I can show this vid)
I can picture Jason becoming a real estate developer in the future, especially with his talent for building things.
So mind boggling it's hard to process. I think my favorite items were the red handled kitchen tools, I think he said were his mother's, and the glass room at the end that we only got a peek at. I know you love toys and he has an overwhelming amount!
That was a terrific video Alexander. What a collection! Over the moon OCD, but still cool. Nice to see your son and you sharing time together. You're a good Dad and I enjoy your skilled adventures in pursuit of progressive life goals. ✊ Warm wishes to the entire family. 🥰
That was amazing! When I worked for Toys R Us we would often have collectors who wanted to purchase displays, you are correct it was mandated by the manufacturer how they were disposed of. We had a list of which displays we 'owned' and which were provided by the vendor.
So funny what everyone noticed and loved. For me, the book room. I was a Bobbsey Twins fan. So, I instantly saw the binding of the book. Seemed like Benny had a few, maybe 3. But, I understand they aren’t very collectible. I have several BT books because it was a series I could get lost in. To this day, I love a great mystery-detective read and I am 68 years old. Thank you Benny and wife for opening up your home so that many, many thousands of viewers could appreciate the most incredible personal collections we have ever seen! WOW!
Weren’t they called The Bobsey Twins?
@@marilynbratti8382 yes, my iPad “corrected” my reply. I didn’t see it. They are indeed called The Bobbsey Twins.
I can't help but get tickled even Alex gets so excited about Legos 😂😂😂
What an absolutely incredible collection. It’s really neat to see how the collector displays their collection. I love this kind of tour. Thank you for sharing their story with us!
Wow. The Lego room was amazing and to have them all mint in box just incredible.
Wow is right, I loved the tour of their collections. Thanks Alex for making this fantastic video. Special thanks to Benny and his wife for sharing with us all, the beauty in all your treasures, so perfectly displayed.
What a collection! Thanks so much to the ownder for sharing it with us. I recognised so many things from my own childhood and things I bought for my son [e'g the Fisher Price garage].
At 22:49 is a Red Tonka truck. I have the same one. I bought it at a church jumble sale in Sheffield, UK in the mid 1970's. I was 14 and just loved the look of it. I still do... it's sitting only a few feet away from me now, on the mantlepiece.
Loved this video. I LOVED seeing a real serious collectors stuff...absolutely pristine material and his means of displaying them is fantastic. Truely special! Way better than any museum. This is a "do NOT touch" collection, pristine stuff.
🌟🌟🌟Speechless I think is the word I'm trying to say but I'm speechless!!!🌟🌟🌟
Benny, Thank you for letting us into your world. What a show!!
There couldn't possibly be a collection out there on this entire planet that could compare to
yours. 🌟🌟🌟WOW!!!🌟🌟🌟
Alexander and Melissa have my utmost respect insuring their kids wear a mask around strangers.
Wow! Now that is a true collector - amazing.
Wow, this was the most amazing house and collection I have ever seen. All so organized & pristine! their grandkids must be in heaven when they come to visit. What a carpenter too..those display cases ..wow!!! I really enjoyed seeing all this! Thanks for sharing your collection with us ! :)
That was a jaw-dropping home! I can't imagine what his insurance must cost. I hope his kids and grandkids appreciate these treasures collected so lovingly.
Wow!! What a collection! Must say that your humor is so Dutch!
My jaw is on the floor!! Amazing! what a collection!
Thank you for sharing Benny and his wife’s wonderful collections! Simply amazing. Fran
Truly a wonderland!!!
Thank you for sharing!
I have a "JacksonOpoly". A Monopoly spin off of our city in Jackson, Tennessee.
Just wow....kids paradise...wot an amazing collection...wot a legacy for his children and ther children...
His book collection is inspiring!
I'm impressed. That is one awesome collection! I think everyone would be happy to pick one box from that collection.... SO much awesomeness!
I feel like I’ve bid against this guy back in the day on some of the little people items! He’s got it all! Most of the stuff I collected ended up being played with by my daycare kids over the years so they’re not in the best condition. My prized item is the ‘A’ frame house. I have an ‘A’ frame cabin and the fisher price version sits proudly on a custom made birch tree book shelf.
This was probably one of my favorite episodes to date! Amazing collection!!!
You have no luck bidding against rich people and sadly Ebay allows the use of Bots who bid for you and no person has a chance of winning against them unless they bid higher than the person using the bot is willing to go. I think it is disgusting that such things even exist. Aside from that Yes this is the most amazing collection of assorted items I have ever seen.
@@traceyhuntstreasure2890 I enjoyed my eBay auction stage of life lol. I haven’t bid on anything in years but did get a lot of cool stuff over the years. I’ve never tried listing anything on eBay. Is it still as popular as it used to be?
This house was amazing! He must have one of the largest, best condition toy collections in the world. Everything looked like new. Thank you for taking us along!
