: When I found this board several years ago, I was
: thrilled to find that there were other Wff lovers
: out there. I don't know any one personally that
: collects these mice. I've been collecting for
: over 20 years and I love them as much today as
: the first time I saw one. I understand that every
: one is entitled to his or her opinion, blah,
: blah, blah, but there is an opinion and then
: there is out right negativity. Life is filled
: with stress. If you are so disenchanted with Wff,
: their prices, their size, shape, color, etc, then
: why are you still reading this board? If
: something gave me as much bad feeling as these
: mice give to some of you posters, I would drop it
: and never look back. Find another interest. Find
: a cheaper collectible. There are lots of other
: cute things out there. Charming Tales (tails ?)
: comes to mind. Harmony Kingdom. Buy Sculpey clay
: and make your own. Surround yourself with
: something that brings you joy and stop punishing
: yourself and the ones of us who still love these
: mice. This posting is negative and may be pulled,
: but this has been building in me for some time. I
: didn't want to address the issue because it would
: create more negativity but times are just as bad
: for us Wff lovers as for those of you who no
: longer like them. I need someone to blow a little
: sunshine up my skirt, not drag me down. It has
: been a bad couple of weeks and I'm sorry for
: ranting, but not sorry for my
: "opinion". Sincerely, Mary O.

I am a new collector and have recently joined your club. I love this website and appreciate the master lists with pictures to help me learn about pieces. I'm very excited to be collecting something which gives me so much joy. It is nice to learn that other people love these mice as much as I do. I would love to go to an event someday now that I know there are positive people that collect. I'm sure I could learn a lot from all of you. The fact that these mice are hand painted with such precision and care makes me think that they are not over priced. I think the Petersen's have created an amazing product and am so impressed with their work.
