Did anyone see the guy from Chico CA. selling 10 Tiki Bob mugs on e-bay in one auction? (just before Christmas)
Last week the same guy was auctioning 5 more. Where the hell did he get 15 tiki Bob Mugs? I decided to email the guy to find out....
Seems he sold the 10 mugs (for about $500) and they were all chipped and had hairline cracks. The buyer returned them and got their money back. After getting them returned he listed 5 (the second listing) with better notes of the damages. he gave me a rundown of the condition of the 4 he has left. I was able to get one with only a 1/4 inch hairline for $30.
Never did find out how he ended up with the 10 Bob's.

The lot of 5 were sold for $211.50.
I bid up until $50. Does the seller plan on listing any more individuals?

That one is the like the one I found in the wild down the street from my house a few weeks ago for 12 bucks.
According to Duke in his book, the ones with the lei on the back are the later version of this mug.

I already posted this picture in "Tiki Travel", but I guess it goes here too.

Sorry about that, GatorRob. I was trying to capture the true Marxist feeling of that thread in art. How about this one:
