Hey y'all....shipping takes at least 5-7 days if you are shipping within the US...give the boxes another day or so to get there.
Also if you have received your box and can not post a photo for whatever reason please PM YOUR TRADEEE so they know you got it.
And Duane whatever you sent you can send to us...why not..I know you have quadruples of the items anyways!

There was a knock on the door yesterday from the mail lady and after a few evil glares from my fiance, the package was allowed to enter our domain!
Then it was calmly explaining that "No, it's not from Ebay! No, I didn't buy anything! No, I didn't spend the kid's college fund! No, I didn't break my promise about spending $$$......." You know, the same thing you all go through all the time! 
My package arrived from Trutiki (THANK YOU SOOO MUCH!!!) right as we were leaving for a week so not only do I have to keep myself waiting patiently, all of you will have to wait as well!! Sorry but the package literally arrived just as we were heading out and no way was I about to open it with the Mrs. standing over me holding a crying baby!!
To be cont........

I am so glad then that I spent extra to send it EXPRESS mail on April 6. My stuff gets to Germany quicker than BC!
For a brief moment I submitted a picture of the USPS Express receipt but then realized it had both our addresses on it and probably even my phone number. But then I realized my breach of your privacy. I apologize, but you can ask SandraDee since I sent her the tracking number on April 6.

mine was sent out priority mail 15 days ago to my own state. *sigh* I hope the recipient is just off on a vacation and not that the post office ate it.

Got back from Mojave Oasis and I had this lovely package waiting on my doorstep...
Inside was an awesome haul from dcman!
A cool mug from Otto's Shrunken Head in NYC, a glass millefiore paperweight, a Shag DVD, a couple of neat prints, yummy cocktail flavored Jelly Bellys, a collection of ephemera, including a cool Mai Kai postcard, and a Mai Tai Exotic Cocktail Guide (we mixed up a couple of the recipes already... delish!) And a very nice note from dcman!
Mahalos Dan!

A package has arrived from across the waters..Sent by House Of Ku..A most wonderful and exotic a package as one could ever hope for...beautiful island girls, lave, drinking gifts and ideas..and as the fates would have not a thing in this box was like any I already had. The most extraordinary bits enclosed would have to be the pieces dug up at the factory site ,destroyed by fire of the Famous Coco Joe's...a name known by all since they were old enough to spell TIKI..  
 ....WOW and a very big Thank you for a fantastic trade surprise.....

From Leleliz :
Ka'lenatiki was my trader and all I have to say is thanks so much Steve! I actually do not own any of what you sent so you were able to add to my collection which is awesome.
Thank you for the napkins, tissues, DTB swag, pen, desktop sized moai,shot glass and two mugs! Loved it all and thank you for such a great swap box! The more we collect the harder it seems to surprise someone with "new" finds...I feel lucky you were able to do just that!
Looks like everyone has been getting some great stuff -- glad to see this swap thread has continued!
Aloha xoxox

8Ft Tiki Duane was SUPPOSED to send you all those bucket mugs....leave it to him to try and actually make you HAPPY with your package
Great boxes everyone
Let me know if you are still waiting for yours...or if you still have not shipped.
Atomictonytiki (who is out of town right now) your box was shipped a bit late but I am sure it will be at your house waiting for you when you get home
TikiPug your box was shipped late as well--but you have been pm'd why
Anyone else with problems shoot me a message !

Got my box from Lightning Steve and could not be happier. Steve I did not have any of the great items you sent in my collection. Everything is a fantastic addition. A killer Dirty Donny mug by Tiki Farm, two Frankie's swizzle sticks, two Kahiki paddle swizzles, a cool little shot glass, Frankie's matches, sex on the beach mini kit, a Frankies's sticker and a cool Pocketiki postcard. A great trade indeed. Thanks Lighting Steve !!!!!!!!!!!

The tiki bunny made me happy today! I'd been out of town all week and my swap from Canada was here waiting when I got back. Way to go Slacks! A Johnny Pineapple LP, Breakfast of Champions soundtrack CD (Martin Denny music - didn't make the photo because I'm listening to it right now), Paul Marshall coffee cup, Al Harrington mug, a buzillion hawaiian postcards, Hawaii souvenir flag, swizzles, umbrellas, tiki Margarita glass, one of those things you pour booze with, and even seashells!
Mucho Mahalo To Ya!

the second of my trades arrived Saturday AM (All the way from Thailand) but I've only just had time to unpack and photograph it...
...and it's contents...
A cool Atomic Tony Tiki Mug by Tiki Farm (so glad i held back on purchasing one now)
A nice carved Tiki Keychain
A nicely hand drawn message card (on the back of a card that i think i traded with him last trade - a great way to get it back)
and a cool set of childrens Tiki PJs...
A friend of mine has just had his first son (18 mnths old), so he will be the best dressed shaved chimp in town!
Mahalo A.T.T. for another cool trade.
