In April, Vince announce the his Closeout Sale, hoping to get that transfer to Florida. Lost of folks came by, said their farewells, and bought lots of trains. Not all his stock, we still packed up a lot of stuff to take back. His close out was sincere, but he didn't know for certain when or if the transfer would happen.
Well, Wednesday, a text from Vince popped up on my phone, reading simply "I got it".
Yup, he got his transfer. We talked later, he's going. It's official. Vince's Trains days at York in the Orange Hall appear to be over.
That's the good for him, the bad for my friend Trainpop and myself. It was a fun run working with Vince and Peggy for so many years. It was lots of work, but also lots of fun. We'll be back to wandering the halls, so put up with us seeming lost.
Now, the good for you!
Vince has all that stuff we packed up to sell, and not much time to do it!
He doesn't want to pack, all that stuff to take to Florida! If you thought his prices in April were good, the ones coming up should be even better!
Vince, Peggy, Jessie with the crazy red hair, Little Vinny, we will miss you all, but thanks for the time well spent with you, your friends and all your Great customers. I wouldn't trade a minute of it, not even for a Vision Line Big Boy!
