You ever get the feeling you as an individual are required to live by one set of rules and the rest of the world by another set of rules? This deal of mine concerning Pez Corporation is a huge example. Though it seems every week smaller examples present themselves. I tend to ignore the little things nowadays trying to stay focused on the big one. Still, it feels like the rules changed for the rest of the world, yet I'm trapped in a now forgotten code of right & wrong. We now live in strange times.
The current recession for most people in America has lasted since 2008. My personal recession has lasted since 1998. Some think Corporate greed is at the heart of the American recession.

For 10 years I traveled to Europe almost every month buying Pez. Spending just under 1 year abroad.
I made over 70 trips to Europe, spending roughly $700,000.00 cash buying pez. This excludes Plane tickets, cars & hotels, if these were included it would be closer to 1 million.
I hand carried roughly 700,000 pez between Europe and the USA on those 70 trips.
Countries visited buying Pez included; Canada, Australia, Austria, South Africa, Spain, France, Slovenia, Germany, Hungary, Czech Republic, Slovak Republic, Switzerland and Sweden.
For 5 years in the 1990s I was the largest Pez Dealer in the world. This rough draft explains how that experience affected my life.
Total Amount of money spent buying Pez in the USA and Europe, well over 2 million dollars.
Number of Pez dispensers bought and sold, approx 2 million overall.
I operated in an underground black market Pez economy for 10 years. Making me a Pez Outlaw. A man on the run with a giant bulls-eye on my back.
How and Why in the end I lost 8.5 Million Dollars selling Pez.
The President of PEZ USA and Pez International used Fraud, Lies and market manipulation to bankrupt my company.
This in short is the story of a middle class factory rat who turned a $3,000.00 investment into a million dollar business. The rise & the fall of to much, to fast. Very similar to winning the lottery only to end up broke. The black market of collectibles. Smuggling, bribes, payoffs, etc. I like to think of it as just another day buying & selling collectibles. Whether it's cereal boxes, toys, action figures, die cast cars, premiums, Mcdonalds or Pez, it's always the same. There is always a trick to it. Payoffs of one kind or another to get the ones you want or the quantities you need. If you are willing to pay enough you can get what you want. There will always be someone willing to provide it at a price.
The following are surveillance photos taken on the sly by me. For this transaction I paid Gunther Leitner for 50 boxes of 12 carded Silver Glows per box. The driver and I were then told where to meet off site by Gunther.

The Raba Hotel in Gyor Hungary
 |
| This is the Raba Hotel in Gyor. I spent well over 6 months here if you add up all my stays over a 10 year period. I loved this place. Highly recommended if you visit Hungary. Last few years of my travels my room was in far left corner of picture. The ones with balconies. |
 |
| Restaurant at the Raba Hotel. I spent a lot of time here smoking cigarettes drinking espresso & Fanta orange as a chaser. Absolutely lovely place, many fond memories. Table with thingy on it was my table. |
The Elvis Cafe.
The Elvis Cafe was this really weird restaurant located at the side of the road. I used to pass this cafe every trip in Hungary. Like I said, If you take the M1 freeway you really don't see Hungary. You have to take two lane blacktops if you want to see a passenger plane sticking out of a building. This restaurant was located about midway between the Vienna Hungarian border and Gyor. I actually stopped at this cafe several times. Had espresso up in the plane and bought several T-shirts.

The Real Pez Truck
 |
| The real for real Pez truck. Parked at the Yellow House aka Hungarocany in Gyor. For all the trucks that have been made and sold to collectors. I never understood why someone did not make the real thing. For me this truck is an icon. This truck is also the reason I thought Gunther was disappointed after we made our first Pez buy. He had them back it up to the warehouse, so once we were done it could be loaded for transport. That buy was early days only a few thousand dollars. What am I saying? I never in 10 years bought more than could fit in a good medium size car. Five duffel bags was my limit. I used to see this truck in Hungary, Slovenia and in between. Picture courtesy of Rudi. |
Janossomorja
Jánossomorja was the name of the town or was it the warehouse where Gunther sent me. All you had to do was spot the smoke stack with Pez on it. then find the roads that got you there. This was the warehouse where Pez dispensers were stored. At the time it was also where candy was made and pez were carded. Like Kolinska in Slovenia. More or less the distribution hub for the old Eastern Block countries and Russia. Gunther owned that part of the world when it came to Pez.
Austria, Traun.

This is the building Where I found Gunther Leitner that day. That's my crappy little red rental car turning the corner. Unlike the photo the parking lot was empty and the main door was wide open.Below Photo of the Ferry Boat I booked passage on with Silja Ferry Lines in Sweden. Inset is Pez Pal Mariner.

| Pez Outlaw Pez Dispenser |
Trust me. I am not making any friends by writing this book. As a matter of fact it is probably losing me the few I have left.
Pez International Committed A 1/2 Million Dollar Fraud by selling me Hundreds of thousands in Pez dispensers in bad faith. Items were termed exclusive by the broker. Item specifications designed by me were agreed to. After delivery, the pez Dispensers were immediately copied. Then a full campaign by Pez Usa was waged to undervalue the investment. The intent of these actions was to render my investment in 1/2 million dollars worth of Pez products valueless. Pez International committed Fraud through actions and intent.
To me the biggest outrage is, the President of PEZ USA (Zombie in Chief) conceived and executed the demise of my little company. Mastermind of the Fraud was not a nameless corporation but the President of PEZ USA himself. The President of PEZ USA ruthlessly carried out his plan until my company was absolutely & totally destroyed. When PEZ International reproduced my $250,000.00 special order of PEZ dispensers for PEZ USA, it was a Breach of Implied Contract. Breach of Implied Contract because I obviously never would have placed the order if in any way I'd expected it would be reproduced. To this day no one at PEZ International shows any remorse for the act. To me this points to a company with no soul. How does PEZ International rationalize destroying a persons life's work out greed envy & jealousy.
Let me be very clear. I do not want from Pez Corporation what is there's. I want what Pez Corp stole from me through Breach of Implied Contract.
At the heart of it all is a very fundamental problem. I asked for a large group of very unique pez dispensers from Pez Austria. Pez Austria knew I would not be buying this large group of product except that it was unique. When Pez Austria agreed to make then sell these unique dispensers to me, the very production was the contract. Accepting payment was the signature on that contract.
The Fraud was having no intention of maintaining the uniqueness of those pez dispensers. The Pez dispensers were meant to be sj glew pez. Pez Austria knew this & agreed to make them, sj glew at the time was a brand. Smaller but similar to Walmart, Walgreens etc branding a pez truck. Pez Austria knew the only way the product was effective for me was if it remained unique & they agreed to make it unique.
Pez Austria & Pez USA perpetrated a Fraud by accepting a unique order, understanding it was unique & why it needed to be unique. Then intentionally with malice reproducing that product exactly. Intentionally & with malice did manipulate a campaign to destroy the value of the initial production of pez dispensers. Re-branded the duplication product Misfits, a name meant to demean that product & my original run product.
This is important. The name MISFITS was created & intended to devalue & minimize anything special about these pez. Pez USA through a newsletter with malice defamed the pez dispensers, by initially saying they were not real. Important point: Pez USA stated the Holiday Colors were not real pez, with full knowledge that they were indeed real pez. This lie by Pez USA was stated with full intent that it be disseminated through the newsletter with the intent of the lie killing sales of product I bought from Pez Corporation. Again, Pez USA intentionally told a lie knowing & intending for it to be printed in a publication. The intent of the known lie was to hurt a clients business.
PezPolice explain that one to everybody. Pezpolice you know Richie at PCN can verify this to be true. Yet you the PezPolice still send vial emails to me like I'm a fool who is upset about nothing. The case is laid out clearly in Pez Outlaw Diary yet you the PezPolice & Pez Corporation continue to ignore or send very vial emails. Somehow thinking after 3 years of work on Pez Outlaw Diary & $millions$ in losses I will just give up. You need to read Chapter 1. Crazy Is Easy If You Are Motivated .
My whole life has prepared me for this fight, as if I was born to fight it. I am because of my life experiences uniquely qualified for this fight. My predilections, flaws & foibles actually make it seem fun. My superpower is that I can dig in & focus like a laser on something for years as though it were days. Yes Crazy is Easy If You Are Motivated. I guess Pez Corporation where that leaves us is. What is your idea of fun? Pez Outlaw Diary or Chapter 19.
Pez USA also defamed my person & the brand sj glew in the same manner. As I've stated sj glew was a brand 20 years in making. This was done in the same manner as stated above. Also by creating the MISFITS Pez Corp intended it to show me a liar. So get this Pez Corp perpetrated a FRAUD through Breach of Implied Contract which was intended to show I was a liar. That the Holiday Colors were not exclusive. Sure if you commit FRAUD then the Holiday Colors aren't exclusive. This is a perfect example of the twisted logic used by Pez Corporation ruined the name of sj glew.
So let me get this right. You Pez Corporation lie spread the lie, all the while with full knowledge that you are lieing. You Pez Corporation use FRAUD to make me appear to be a liar. You Pez Corporation do these things so product I bought from you Pez Corporation will become worthless. Yet somehow in this twisted scenario I'm the bad guy. Okey Dokey if sj glew the dealer who everybody trusted must be destroyed then Pez Outlaw will be born. If Pez Outlaw is what you want, then Pez Outlaw is what you get. Pez Outlaw is born Pez Corporation out of your FRAUD and Lies. sj glew could not possibly deal with your actions, he tried for 10 years. sj glew was miserable at dealing with the aftermath of your Pez Corporation's destruction. Pez Outlaw though, now he is another animal. Pez Outlaws rules are different than sj glew's rules were.
Twelve years ago we played your game Pez Corporation and you were the puppet master. Now Pez Corp we are going to play the Pez Outlaw game. I remind you we once before played the Pez Outlaw game, as I recall I won that one. It wasn't until I tried trusting you Pez Corp that I actually lost. So we go back to playing by my rules. Game on Pez Outlaw verses Pez Corporation Commie Pinkos.
Pez Outlaw is a direct result of the necessity to rebrand sj glew after the FRAUD by Pez Corp. The sj glew brand was rendered toxic as a direct result of the efforts of the President of Pez USA. I guess you could rightly say Pez USA created Pez Outlaw out of necessity. Pez Outlaw would not exist if Pez Corp had not destroyed sj glew.
Because of the activities of Pez Austria & Pez USA the pez dispensers I bought from them became worth a fraction of what I paid Pez Austria & the brand sj glew became a joke. All these activities were done with malice & forethought. The end result was the desired result.
You might ask how could a major international corporation like Pez act like this. A mixture of arrogance & hubris. I also suffered the same affliction. Unfortunately I was a fly to be swatted, so reality returned with a vengeance. The end result is I am humbled & nobody noticed the ruthless contemptible methods used by Pez international to destroy my business.
There is a very interesting parallel between 1994 and now. When I first started traveling to Europe buying PEZ the currencies of Europe were very low & the Dollar was king. That being the case the people over there were extremely happy to see me. Business was very good from my point of view. Then came the Euro, by the way which I never liked or respected. How on earth could countries like Hungary tie themselves to the European Union & give up part of there sovereignty. To me it was unthinkable.As the Euro rose in value business got worse for me. Again I never believed in or understood the high Euro. I have always felt it was smoke & mirrors. Fast forward to 2011 Greece failing, Portugal failing, Ireland in trouble, Spain in trouble, Italy in big trouble & questions about France's financial stability. Yesterday Hungary was added to the list of Euro users in deep trouble. Problem is by tying themselves to the Euro they all gave away there ability to correct there problems if they still had there own currencies.
My point here is I would bet you a dollar that The Hungarians & Austrians would be just as happy today to see my $10,000.00 a month as they were in 1994. That's the problem when you kill the Goose that laid the golden egg. My advice get off the Euro number 1. #2 meet the terms in chapter 19 Restitution for Fraud.
You guys want to see $10,000.00 a month again, you gotta get me back in the game. Europe is headed for very dark days & the European Union is going to fail. Austria & Hungary, you are going to be on your own again. Getting me back in the game won't help what is going to happen to your countries, but it will help with a softer landing for the people I used to do business with & could again.
The catch is I need Chapter 19 to even be able to get back in the game. Talk amongst yourselves now. See if in the end you don't agree I'm right. You all should be scared as hell now about the Euro & what is coming.
Europe is about to face some very serious challenges. The bill for past practices is coming due. For me a kind of metaphor for my relationship with Pez Corporation.
Just what the world needs, another book about Pez Dispensers. Actually Yes! Because this is the first book about Pez Dispensers that shows Pez warts & all. I give you all the stuff you want. More pictures of pez dispensers than in any other book or on any other website. The only Pez price guide that takes into account some not so happy aspects of Pez Dispensers, attributable to things no other price guide will tell you. For that matter things other Pez Books don't want you to know or think about..
In addition I give you a behind the scenes view for the first time of the Pez hobby. What it was like to be the biggest Pez Dealer in the world for approx 5 years. More importantly what I saw in my 10 years as a Pez Dealer & a Pez Outlaw.
This book will talk about taboo subjects no other pez book will. Tell you things others won't. Besides being a ripping good story about the rise & fall of a really big idea. A Pez story of dishonesty, betrayal, envy & greed. You will not find the information I disclose about Pez Dispensers in any other book about Pez.
How I turned a $3,000.00 investment into a business that earned 4.5 million dollars in 10 years. Then in the end lost 8.5 million dollars selling Pez. I did not do all of this alone, which is the point of this book. Pez Corporation played an integral part every step of the way.
Who Doesn't Want to Read About Zombies, Scoundrels and Thieves. I knew most of the people I bought Pez from were Scoundrels & Thieves. What surprised me was that Pez Corporation also fell in this category. This book in great detail lays out how Pez Corporation dealt with an individual they found annoying. That individual was me.

Pez Outlaw - Someone who pays bribes and smuggles Pez dispensers. A person who buys and sells Black Market Pez Dispensers. Someone who operates just out of reach and out of sight. Yet totally out in the open for all to see.
Can a small business survive if a big International Corporation like PEZ decides to take them out? The answer is no. The bigger question is why is it ok for a big company like PEZ to do it. Why do people accept it as ok & move on like it never happened? This Diary is my attempt to stand up against that kind of behavior.
I may not have a prayer of success but that should not stop anyone from standing up for what is right. Whether you are Big International Company like PEZ or a nobody like me, we are all defined by our behavior.You can not allow the possibility of appearing foolish in other peoples eyes to stop you from standing up for what you believe is right. I choose this fight because it is right, not because I believe I will win. Sometimes the only honor you will achieve is in the willingness to take on the fight itself, not any rational hope of victory. Besides, I still owe the bank $250,000.00 for money I borrowed to do the deal. So what have I got to loose?
Is there anybody in the Pezverse more interesting or controversial than Pez Outlaw? Adding another term/word. Pezverse = World of PEZ. Collectors, Hobbyists & Pez Corporation all in Pezverse. All things PEZ are in the Pezverse.
Quite frequently I receive very harsh criticism from PEZ enthusiasts about Pez Outlaw Diary. Very Harsh. Ask yourself one question. If this story was not true, don't you think I would have been crushed again by Pez Corporation? I've been writing the Diary now for approximately 3 years. Not a peep out of PEZ Corporation. What does that tell you?
Recent comments by the PezPolice have prompted me to state the following. This is a Diary not a work of literature. Should be obvious from the title. I have no illusions Pez Outlaw Diary will win an award for literature. The Diary has one purpose & one purpose only. To tell my story. Without this Diary my experience is treated as though it never happened. The Diary changes that.

17. "győri plast". See Chapter 5. Hungary - Who Was Zooming Who?
18. "collecting pez as investment". Again this is an actual search term used on the internet that brought someone to pezoutlaw.com. Collecting anything as an investment is a really bad idea. I've seen it with McDonalds premiums, cereal items, toys etc. & I've seen it with Pez Dispensers. This way of thinking never ends well. The amount of time that must pass for a collectible to gain in value is roughly 20 years. If I'd put all the money I"ve spent on crackpot schemes in the bank, I'd be rich now. Seriously I would.
Unfortunately I did not. So now I'm writing a book about that "investment". To tell the truth though not many who collect things are doing it as an investment. Usually it is because they can't help themselves. For most collectors it is out of a deep love for the item they collect. So just putting money in a bank instead really is not an option. For me collecting was an obsession. I really did not have a choice.
So collecting pez as an investment. Really a very foolish thing to do.
19. "blue head sylvester pez". Color variations are created on demand. Need money, have access, create a color variation. How many people have you known who need money just once? Pay more than $300.00 for any color variation at your own peril. The sale itself encourages another one. Again Europeans have distance as a buffer against previous promises. " I promise this is the only one. It is one of a kind". What are you going to do travel 2000 miles & confront them? NO!
20. "photos pez pals body parts". Chapter 17 & Chapter 2.
21. "how much is pez yo yo worth". See Chapter 9. Scoundrels & thieves.Plastic pez yo yos.
22. "value of pez truck". See Chapter 9. Scoundrels & thieves. Deals with non dispenser plastic trucks cars planes.
23. "what is the value of a mickey mouse pez dispenser?" "tweety bird pez dispenser value" "charlie brown pez values". Put these 3 together. See Chapters 16 & 17.
24. "was there a reason for making pez". Originally the candy was made & sold as an aid to quit smoking. The dispensers came approximately 10 years later to market the candy to children in America.
25. "what does little # on pez mean" Number on stem near base is the stem patent umber. Heads on Pez Dispensers have a separate patent # & or License. Country above it is country of origin. If no country of origin is on stem, dispenser was made for non-USA distribution. USA requires country of origin.
This part of this answer is very important.
Reproducing Pez in exact detail is easy with modern molding technology. If you have an injection molding facility to do it in. A head can be scanned, a mold then can be produced from that scan. The only factor in whether or not to do it is. Is it worth doing? Which is exactly why I have always warned against $1,000.00 plus price tags for items made of plastic. Specifically Pez Dispensers. By paying thousands of dollars for a pez dispenser, you make faking it worth doing.
27. "pez photo guide". Chapters 16 & 17. To my knowledge Pez Outlaw contains the only photo guide to pez values. More Pez dispensers pictured in Pez Outlaw than any other book or website.
28. "pez money clip" One Word. Fake! No gray area. 1st hand knowledge. FAKE!
29. "pez gun how to know if real". Excellent Question. The red shooters I believe are real. By that I mean red shooters not the orange ones. I believe the orange shooters were made after the Orange Pez Space Gun. As I believe that was as close as they could come with plastic pellets to the red shooter originally made. I think they figured, well the pez space gun was orange so close enough. I do not believe the orange shooters to be original production. Anybody own an orange shooter still carded.
Another tell on the "FIND" of about 10 years ago is the oil in the clip. It was very fresh on the ones I received. Twenty year old oil would have been darker. Also plastic does age, if you have a very good eye, I believe you will spot if something looks to new. Original guns should show a modest age to general appearance. Honestly though repops with original molds would be difficult to detect. If they sell for $10.00 to $25.00 each, who cares.
30. "hitler pez dispenser for sale" or "hitler pez value". Thes pez dispensers were created by Dwayne Dimmock (sorry I know I misspelled the name) in the early 1990s. They are a fantasy piece created by painting a pez pal. Dwayne was the first Pez Person to get legal action taken against him by Pez Corporation. He received a cease & desist order from Pez for the Hitler Pez. He was very proud of the document.
Value of the Hitler Pez to me is ZERO. I personally find it lacking in taste. I get the anarchist irreverent point of view. I get the joke. Truth is it just does not make me laugh.
Also it's not a real pez dispenser & anybody could make one. Waste of a perfectly good Pez Pal. Pez pal is worth approx $10.00. Defaced with black paint Pez Pal is worth nothing.
31. "vintage pez dispenser green hornet-2 variations". If by two variations the person who used this search term means brown hats & green hats, the following. I believe the brown hats for Green Hornets out of Austria were created by the King of Austria. I believe he at the very least had access to the hat & mask mold, creating them in brown to sell as rare variations for more money. Pez corp & the license holder would not have allowed this. Once colors & molds are approved by license holder, Pez corp strictly adhered to approved colors.
That is unless pez corp thinks they can scrub the license & use the mold as a generic. Such as Blue Dumbo.
32. "Kizz pez dispenser for sale" or "Kizz pez value". These pez dispensers are a fantasy piece created by painting Wonder Woman Pez Dispensers like the 4 different members of the band. Gene Simmons really dislikes these items & sees them as a violation of Kizz copyright. He will go after people who create them if he can find out who they are.
Value of the Kizz Pez is pez fantasy value. You may love them & pay $25.00 or so for the set of 4 different, but there is no guaranteed resale value if you decide to sell them.
33. "pez pops". I find it very gratifying that this term was used in an internet search. Chapter 14. Opinions Are Like @$$h013$. Idea #16 Pez Pops.
34. "who wrote pez outlaw". Steven J. Glew from Michigan. aka sj glew. aka Pez Outlaw. Pretty cool that someone actually searched this question.
35. "pez outlaw" Success is measured in inches. The fact that pez outlaw is now searched as a term or name illustrates a wider awareness that I even exist. Pez Outlaw is gaining awareness in the collective consciousness. In my personal tracking project of search terms to get to pezoutlaw.com, the term pez outlaw is now number 1 with a bullet.
36. "pizza hut.győr". I can't believe this search term showed up & led people to Pez Outlaw Diaries, let alone twice. I would travel to Gyor just to eat there again & relive the memories. My fondest memories of traveling to Europe, specifically Hungary were at the Pizza Hut in Gyor. This was my second home when I traveled to Gyor. Large pan pizza, peperoni & Pepsi Lite. The waiters used to tell me what my order was. If you travel to Gyor you must eat there.Tell them the old bearded American with the ponytail sent you. P.S. Yes I bought the T-Shit, actually 2 of them. Whenever I wore the Gyor Pizza Hut T-shirt it was like a secret Pez Code T-shirt. I always felt the Gyor Pizza Hut T-shirt was the ultimate Pez T-shirt, if you were in the know you knew what it meant. As Gyor is the unknown Capital of Pez in Europe, besides being the Black-market Capital of Pez in Europe.
37. "bozo the clown pez dispenser made in hungary". This search term bothers me since at least a 20 year gap exists within the possible. gyori plast did not come on line until about 1992.
38. "pez silver glow". Did you know that the vast majority of the Pez Silver Glows in collections today were smuggled into the USA by me. Total of 2 trips approximately 3,000 Pez Silver Glows. I have to beat my own drum or there is silence. So please forgive the boasting.
39. "can you making money sell pez dispensers?" I am definitely the wrong guy to ask this question. Here goes anyway. Fast answer, NO. Longer answer, as long as you don't make to much money, you will be allowed to live. Make to much money & the heavens will descend upon you. Sorry to get all Biblical. The destruction to my life felt very fire & brimstone. Screwing me was not enough, Pez Corp was not happy till I was Destroyed. Then & only then did Pez Corp release the choke hold.
40. pezoutlaw user ID on ebay. Recently someone decided it would be cool to use pezoutlaw as there user ID on ebay. They let me know after the fact. Said it slipped there mind when they did it & that they were going to change to something else as soon as ebay allowed. Honest mistake, No harm, No foul. There is only one real Pez Outlaw. The name brings with it a lot of baggage, some wanted, some not. Hope everything works out ok for this person, as I don't wish the name pezoutlaw on anyone. The name Pez Outlaw is earned only with 10 years of blissful happiness, then 10 years of depressing sadness. After that acceptance.
A final note, the fine print. If you buy Pez Outlaw Diary, you are buying it as it appears on the blog on date of purchase. You want to rewrite it, fine. You want to talk to me & rewrite it, fine. Me though, I'm done except for consulting. Book or movie, you want to consult on changes you want to make, fine. Buy it you own it. Do what you want with it.
Can a small business survive if a big International Corporation like PEZ decides to take them out? The answer is no. The bigger question is why is it ok for a big company like PEZ to do it. Why do people accept it as ok & move on like it never happened? This Diary is my attempt to stand up against that kind of behavior.
I may not have a prayer of success but that should not stop anyone from standing up for what is right. Whether you are Big International Company like PEZ or a nobody like me, we are all defined by our behavior.You can not allow the possibility of appearing foolish in other peoples eyes to stop you from standing up for what you believe is right. I choose this fight because it is right, not because I believe I will win. Sometimes the only honor you will achieve is in the willingness to take on the fight itself, not any rational hope of victory. Besides, I still owe the bank $250,000.00 for money I borrowed to do the deal. So what have I got to loose?
Is there anybody in the Pezverse more interesting or controversial than Pez Outlaw? Adding another term/word. Pezverse = World of PEZ. Collectors, Hobbyists & Pez Corporation all in Pezverse. All things PEZ are in the Pezverse.
Quite frequently I receive very harsh criticism from PEZ enthusiasts about Pez Outlaw Diary. Very Harsh. Ask yourself one question. If this story was not true, don't you think I would have been crushed again by Pez Corporation? I've been writing the Diary now for approximately 3 years. Not a peep out of PEZ Corporation. What does that tell you?
Recent comments by the PezPolice have prompted me to state the following. This is a Diary not a work of literature. Should be obvious from the title. I have no illusions Pez Outlaw Diary will win an award for literature. The Diary has one purpose & one purpose only. To tell my story. Without this Diary my experience is treated as though it never happened. The Diary changes that.
Feel free to use even whole chapters of this book wherever you want. I give permission right here. Actually I ask you to. Just credit the source. The only important thing is Pez Outlaw be read. I need a wide awareness of this story.

12. "andre zeich". Why anybody would look this guy up (6 times today) is beyond me. Unless they are hoping to avoid being taken to the cleaners. See Chapter 9. Scoundrels & Thieves. Very surprising to me how many times Andre Zeich turns up as a search term.
13. "batman pez fake cape black". See the end of Chapter 17. Free Vintage Pez Dispenser Price Guide.
14. "scott mcwhinnie". See Chapter 10. You Haven't Been Screwed Until You've Been Screwed By Professionals.

15b. "pez corporation". This search term also brought eyes to Pez Outlaw. Who said life is not fare?
16. "pez diablo". See Chapter 2. Did Pez International Commit A 1/2 Million Dollar Fraud? The Pez Color War. Thank you for caring enough to use the correct name.
17. "győri plast". See Chapter 5. Hungary - Who Was Zooming Who?
18. "collecting pez as investment". Again this is an actual search term used on the internet that brought someone to pezoutlaw.com. Collecting anything as an investment is a really bad idea. I've seen it with McDonalds premiums, cereal items, toys etc. & I've seen it with Pez Dispensers. This way of thinking never ends well. The amount of time that must pass for a collectible to gain in value is roughly 20 years. If I'd put all the money I"ve spent on crackpot schemes in the bank, I'd be rich now. Seriously I would.
Unfortunately I did not. So now I'm writing a book about that "investment". To tell the truth though not many who collect things are doing it as an investment. Usually it is because they can't help themselves. For most collectors it is out of a deep love for the item they collect. So just putting money in a bank instead really is not an option. For me collecting was an obsession. I really did not have a choice.
So collecting pez as an investment. Really a very foolish thing to do.
19. "blue head sylvester pez". Color variations are created on demand. Need money, have access, create a color variation. How many people have you known who need money just once? Pay more than $300.00 for any color variation at your own peril. The sale itself encourages another one. Again Europeans have distance as a buffer against previous promises. " I promise this is the only one. It is one of a kind". What are you going to do travel 2000 miles & confront them? NO!
20. "photos pez pals body parts". Chapter 17 & Chapter 2.
21. "how much is pez yo yo worth". See Chapter 9. Scoundrels & thieves.Plastic pez yo yos.
22. "value of pez truck". See Chapter 9. Scoundrels & thieves. Deals with non dispenser plastic trucks cars planes.
23. "what is the value of a mickey mouse pez dispenser?" "tweety bird pez dispenser value" "charlie brown pez values". Put these 3 together. See Chapters 16 & 17.
24. "was there a reason for making pez". Originally the candy was made & sold as an aid to quit smoking. The dispensers came approximately 10 years later to market the candy to children in America.
25. "what does little # on pez mean" Number on stem near base is the stem patent umber. Heads on Pez Dispensers have a separate patent # & or License. Country above it is country of origin. If no country of origin is on stem, dispenser was made for non-USA distribution. USA requires country of origin.
26. "clear space gun pez". Answer is at the end of Chapter 17. One important fact pretty much tells the story. Plastic & injection molding was in its infancy in the 1950s. Have you ever seen a clear plastic toy molded from the 1950s that didn't have a yellow tint to it today? Add to that the fact that in 1998 when I asked for clear plastic heads in an order. I was told it was not possible as the process was to complicated. Yes a few months later they did it. Point being as late as 1998 clear plastic injection molding was not considered an easy process. Proof of this was in the early clear plastic heads produced in 1998, most had small air bubbles.
Deduction the clear plastic 1950s pez space gun is a fake. An after market creation produced after 1998. Which brings up the question. Who has that mold? Were others produced from that mold in "rare colors"? Has there been a surge of rare or odd colors for the 1950s space gun in the last 10 years? Yes. Were others produced from that mold in normal colors? Has there been a "find" of 1950s pez space guns in the last 10 years that actually should be attributed to this mold used to make the clear gun?This part of this answer is very important.
Reproducing Pez in exact detail is easy with modern molding technology. If you have an injection molding facility to do it in. A head can be scanned, a mold then can be produced from that scan. The only factor in whether or not to do it is. Is it worth doing? Which is exactly why I have always warned against $1,000.00 plus price tags for items made of plastic. Specifically Pez Dispensers. By paying thousands of dollars for a pez dispenser, you make faking it worth doing.
27. "pez photo guide". Chapters 16 & 17. To my knowledge Pez Outlaw contains the only photo guide to pez values. More Pez dispensers pictured in Pez Outlaw than any other book or website.
28. "pez money clip" One Word. Fake! No gray area. 1st hand knowledge. FAKE!
29. "pez gun how to know if real". Excellent Question. The red shooters I believe are real. By that I mean red shooters not the orange ones. I believe the orange shooters were made after the Orange Pez Space Gun. As I believe that was as close as they could come with plastic pellets to the red shooter originally made. I think they figured, well the pez space gun was orange so close enough. I do not believe the orange shooters to be original production. Anybody own an orange shooter still carded.
Another tell on the "FIND" of about 10 years ago is the oil in the clip. It was very fresh on the ones I received. Twenty year old oil would have been darker. Also plastic does age, if you have a very good eye, I believe you will spot if something looks to new. Original guns should show a modest age to general appearance. Honestly though repops with original molds would be difficult to detect. If they sell for $10.00 to $25.00 each, who cares.
30. "hitler pez dispenser for sale" or "hitler pez value". Thes pez dispensers were created by Dwayne Dimmock (sorry I know I misspelled the name) in the early 1990s. They are a fantasy piece created by painting a pez pal. Dwayne was the first Pez Person to get legal action taken against him by Pez Corporation. He received a cease & desist order from Pez for the Hitler Pez. He was very proud of the document.
Value of the Hitler Pez to me is ZERO. I personally find it lacking in taste. I get the anarchist irreverent point of view. I get the joke. Truth is it just does not make me laugh.
Also it's not a real pez dispenser & anybody could make one. Waste of a perfectly good Pez Pal. Pez pal is worth approx $10.00. Defaced with black paint Pez Pal is worth nothing.
31. "vintage pez dispenser green hornet-2 variations". If by two variations the person who used this search term means brown hats & green hats, the following. I believe the brown hats for Green Hornets out of Austria were created by the King of Austria. I believe he at the very least had access to the hat & mask mold, creating them in brown to sell as rare variations for more money. Pez corp & the license holder would not have allowed this. Once colors & molds are approved by license holder, Pez corp strictly adhered to approved colors.
That is unless pez corp thinks they can scrub the license & use the mold as a generic. Such as Blue Dumbo.
32. "Kizz pez dispenser for sale" or "Kizz pez value". These pez dispensers are a fantasy piece created by painting Wonder Woman Pez Dispensers like the 4 different members of the band. Gene Simmons really dislikes these items & sees them as a violation of Kizz copyright. He will go after people who create them if he can find out who they are.
Value of the Kizz Pez is pez fantasy value. You may love them & pay $25.00 or so for the set of 4 different, but there is no guaranteed resale value if you decide to sell them.
33. "pez pops". I find it very gratifying that this term was used in an internet search. Chapter 14. Opinions Are Like @$$h013$. Idea #16 Pez Pops.
