...and I may sell it! I need money, I'm selling some other stuff too this week.
I am not counting on making a mint like that Martin Denny video a while back, but I won't refuse the crazy money either.
Some people have it to spend, lettem.

Me man-tiki, alter ego of Sven-Tiki
Hey, how can one totally cancel an auction? For no reason at all my Sepik Explorer auction got double posted, so I messed with the text and image to make sure that nobody puts a bid on it, but I'd like to get rid of it completely...

Aloha Sven!
I COMPLETELY understand the need to let the huddled Tikiless masses have access to your video (I'm a little shy of cash my own self lately), but I think this is the right time and thread to ask you: is it still available to we Tiki Centralite newbies that don't have our own copies yet? After all, this is an auction; is it that rare now? No longer reproduced by your esteemed self?
Looking forward to your answer with bated, rum-enhanced breath,
emspace.

Okay, am I just being dumb? The silence is ominous...but my teachers always told me there ARE no stupid questions! 
I'll ask again: is the Sven video still available to us Tiki Centralites, as per the instructions found in an old thread with the prices, mailing address, etc?
Much thanx and aloha,
em

Well, I decided to give TCers a discount:
It'll be 750.- instead of 780.-!
...only kidding. While I hope there are more rich fans that don't mind dropping a mint on it in the future, you TCers are at the source, here is the info again. Remember, for your personal use only!:
This delightful journey into Tikiland consists of two videos produced before THE BOOK OF TIKI was published. But since my research had a major influence on the making of them, they visually complement the book nicely.
Expeditions to sites that are now gone, like THE TIKIS and the Playa Del Rey Polynesian Village Apartments, Interviews, and archival footage of people and places mentioned in the book allow the urban archeologist to revisit and discover the sites and sounds of Polynesia Americana:
PART 1 : "THE AIRCONDITIONED EDEN"-25 minutes-
This 1996 documentary was produced and directed by expatriate American Peter Stuart for BBC’s channel 4. The archival footage features highlights such as Martin Denny’s first live performance on the Dinah Shore show. To actually SEE Augie Colon voice those birdcalls is an unforgettable moment (I apologize that my voice over was layed over some of it!). Martin is also interviewed in the film, and we see one of the last interviews with James Michener. -Original footage of the Disneyland Tiki room and the Kon Tiki voyage further document important Tiki moments in history.
PART 2: "HAWAIIAN AIRLINES INFLIGHT VIDEO MAGAZINE" -20 minutes-
This Tiki Tour of Los Angeles was only shown on outbound flights of Hawaiian Airlines in 1999. You get to see my house, my Kon Tiki shirt, lots of Tiki apartments (like the Armet & Davis designed Polynesian Village which is now razed), Bahooka’s Restaurant, and Oceanic Arts in Whittier. Gracious host Miss Hawaii 1998 does not necessarily follow my train of thought, but does a good job stroking the lava rock Vanna White-style.
(So I sold a bunch of videos at the Atlanta Hukilau, and I popped one in the bigscreen player at the Fountainhead Lounge, and to my surprise I see that I have involuntaryly copied a bonus piece at the end of it: The DON TIKI musicvideo shot at La Mariana's in Waikiki! It's not mentioned on the box because I forgot it was at the end of the HAWAIIAN AIRLINES tape!
PAYMENT TERMS: Mail Order Only!
For simplicity, it's 20.- dollars. DO send cash! A 20.- bill is easy to hide in an envelope (checks will do in a pinch). Mail to:
Sven Kirsten
2300 Hidalgo Ave., Los Angeles, CA 90039
This video is made only for Tiki Centralites and personal sale by me. Any profiteering with it on e-bay will result in loss of mana!

Send away for them folks. This video is too cool. I've had mine for months now and watch it sometimes before carving to load up on the tiki mana. The version with the music video is funny. That bald guy haunts my dreams now and then. UUUHHHHUUU....
