Yeah, Teri is top notch! Always a pleasure to do business with her, and her online store is great! Definitely an online store worth frequenting and patronizing.

Certainly send all unloved mug to me. I live on the island of Misfit Mugs and I comfort them and they live out the rest of their days in happiness with others like them.
He is right about the broken mugs not being here. Maybe its the fact that there is less mugs to break. Maybe they are so valuable that we only walk over grass with then never sidewalk. Maybe since they are less bars there are less drunk moments? But the only time that I saw a broke mug (and common at that), I did buy it. And at the same time, cracked mugs make me feel bad and I don't like that around me but I have a happy solution for that mug and I just thought of it alittle while ago.
I have a hollow Moai that I'm going to fill with sand and seal up. I'm going to place that broken mug into the head of the Moai before I seal it and it will timecapsule that mug for hundreds of years. PLus the Moai is literally going to have "tikis on this mind" for all time to come. How cool is that.
But there was a bunch of great photo in this thread that seem to all vanished and once someone made cool wall art with there misfortunes.

Shrek killed my Spooky D!! I happened to be looking at the mug, when all of a sudden (in slow motion!) I see the Shrek falling forward and push my Spooky D right off the shelf!
It's killing me because it was the #150 of 150. I really enjoyed this mug, I just got it.
Anyone need some CZ eyes? I miss it already!

Tragic to say the least...I have nightmares about this happening to me (Thank God for carpet). I had a close call the other day with a Bosko mug. Scary, very scary indeed. You should send the pic to Munktiki. Who knows, they might send you a condolence card.

Don Ho met an untimely demise at the hands of UPS... My Co-worker said the UPS guy walked in & dropped my big box right on the floor. I guess reading was not his best skill as the top of the box had this nice little label "Fragile"!

I'm so sad They arrived like this. 2 out of 4 broken. Three of the four were suppose to be Christmas gifts. Not quite what I was hoping for when I opened the box. Hopefully they will be replaced

I agree with TikiDavid...that was an obvious murder. Looks like a conspiracy in the postal/delivery service industry. When will this senseless killing stop!!!
