Well... keep in mind, it is a room full of relatively recent (70s/80s/90s/NEW) PLASTIC.
Metal beats the PISS out of plastic.. everyday; in quality, monetary value AND the majority of public opinion. If the room was filled with antique brass, iron and aluminum.. I'm sure people would look at it in a different light.
There's a reason why you don't see crap-ass plastic in museums...

However, I'd like to think his reaction is aimed more towards all of those [insert term here] out there who LOVE the plastic sooooo friggin' much.

after at least 20 to 30 years, plastic crap nowadays will be a valuable vintage stuff
what i like about the stores here is that metal bladed fans are still being sold in high quantities (most of them are from pakistan)

Perrey's got 2 or 3 rooms in his house packed with fans and fan stuff...when does it stop being "collecting" and start being "hoarding"?
Once my collection starts outgrowing my allotted storage space I downsize before I expand it any more...I would never fill half my house, almost floor to ceiling, with inanimate objects just so I can say I have them
