Please tell me that the opinions of a few people aren't really going to cause you to throw those away? (No offense guys)

Realize that some people don't like them purely because of stylistic reasons.

It takes a great deal of courage and suppression of ego to put one's tie collection up for judgment in this portion of cyberspace - my hat is off to those who seek or have sought advice on culling their collections.

I do not know if I would have the fortitude to lay my collection out in front of the masses as the previous posters have done - first off, it would take a much larger number of photos to depict it, and I've weeded it recently, and might be rather taken aback at people's reactions to some of the remaining selections.

I get enough grief over my ties as I show them, one by one, on WAYWRN . . .

I also need to cut out several of my ties. I have too many, several quite old and some quite, um
ffffuuuu.gif

So I hope it's okay to also post here in this thread. Sorry for posting so damn many. I have a decent idea of what to keep (some in here are new) and what to donate, but certainly appreciate some opinions on any of the 10 (yikes!) batches of pictures. Thank you.

I am planning on adding 3-4 solids soon, including a couple grenadine.

Groups 1-5 Red, Purple, Old, Misc, Green/Gray



Groups 6-10 Gray, BrOrYel, Blue, Blue2, Black

Did I post too many at once? Are they all terrible? Didn't mean to offend if I did.

Its a lot to look at at once, yes. Pics are a bit small too. One at a time maybe we can help easier.
