Does any one know why Victor T. has decided to some if not all of his collection?

Vic is downsizing his real estate and therefore needs to downsize his collection as he will no longer have room for a separate museum.
If you are interested in acquiring any artifacts, you can contact him at vtaboika@gmail.com
