I used to buy a lot of stuff from Wynnco back in the day, they were way overpriced and back then (before the internet) I'd call to place an order. Being that they are down south they talk VERY slow. When you're making a long distance call it takes FOREVER to place the order.
They also had "exclusive" items which meant they were items they made themselves or had made for them to sell. Case in point are the wooden box set versions of "Bella Donna", "The Wild Heart" and "Rock A Little". I bought the BD and WH sets, yeah they are really cool, but they are not legit.

wynnco...oh gawd...are they still around? i remember the wooden box sets! lol. i used to get catalogs from them...they would advertise in the back pages of rock magazines...they always had alot of odd Stevie related items/documents/greeting cards...most of it from Bobbye Hall. she must have been hard up for cash at one point and sold all her **** to them!!

It is creepy. But I wouldn't mind having that Fleetwood Mac bag for like 50.00 but that other stuff, how does anyone know that didn't belong to him or his girlfriend at that time? This guy could be full of it.

BTW, I've had good luck with Wynnco in the past. Items are always priced too
high, but they have (had?) a good return policy.

Carrie, David.........who wants the "items"?
i have neither a flag pole nor a fire pit, so maybe david should take them.

Here's the description:
Stevie Nicks personal Fleetwood Mac Tour Bag from the 1978 Tour-
Also inside the bag a pair of her panty hose & what appear to be men's
swimming briefs (Her's?, Lindsay's?) All three items were together-
All three have the Sotheby's Auction tags still attached.
$2,000.00

Magazine date October 1998.
Nah,No pantyhose.

I happen to have that same copy,I came acrossed it as I was packing my Stevie/FM stuff to move here.but i dont remember if I kept it or roundfile it.I have not orfered from the Wynnco magazine,their prices were too steep for me.I sticked with a fellow in Texas at the time.he pack everything neat and nothing got broke.

I agree Wynnco has been trying to sell that stuff for so long now. I'd give up cause to me its ugly. Go to there web site they have alot of the same stuff (meaning Stevie/Mac stuff) since the last catalog I'd gotten from them in like I think 2000 when they stopped cause of the Net. I used to order from them alot (them & Goldmine mag) before the Net....and ebay....I agree that they have always, always been high priced. They are still high priced on Stevie/Mac items when prices have went way down ......I'll never understand them. Heck you can get stuff cheaper on ebay now too than ordering from Wynnco.......I haven't bought from them since before '00......they are nice though but still too high on most stuff.....I really wonder how much they sell now??

Would 32 year old undergarments still retain the...(how to put this delicately) the 'essence' of the original wearer?

Such a tacky way of conducting business. I'd ordered it from the back of Goldmine magazine.
I had recently moved back to CT from Los Angeles, and the book just didn't come, for a month. Finally, I went to the small-town post office where I first moved back to here in CT, and the postal workers just had been holding it without notifying me it came.
I was made to feel like an idiot when I went to get the package. 3 or 4 postal workers came out to see who it was who had been mailed this very strange item from 'Stevie Nicks'- I soon left that small town and never ordered from Wynnco again. It was just all so tawdry- which is too kind of a word to describe that awful book.
I have the 'Lady Of The Stars' book too (and the other one by the same author - 'Rock's Mystical Lady`). Utter crap! Both are poorly written with tons of grammatical errors, and all the info was ripped off of magazine articles. The author even used half of one of the books to spotlight other performers whom he thought were 'mystical ' like Stevie (Loreena McKennitt, Tori Amos, Donovan, etc.)

The author even mentioned that he travelled to Phoenix to try to get Stevie herself to help him co-author 'Lady Of The Stars'. She have him a definitive 'No' through her mother Barbara.
