Why the sarcasm, well one I am just jealous of those that were able to attend when I was not. But what ticks me off is those that go only to get something that they know if they get one they will do their best to make as many bucks from it while they can, and I have nothing against that, BUT when a guy says "I really hate to sell this and I’d love to keep it, but I can’t afford to....is not only a very cool item, but also a proven INVESTMENT." then how did you spend the money in the first place. But it is the idea that these people, and there is now a third person who has posted another chalice on ebay, by buying the chalice kept someone else who was there for the event that if they had the opportunity to obtain one would have kept it and appreciated it for more than 24 hours. To me the people that bought these and posted them on ebay have shown NO APPRECIATION to Crazy Al, Von Franco, and Bamboo Ben for the hard work that they put in to design, and make not only the Chalice but this event be the event that it was! So does that better explain my hard feelings about seeing these items on ebay?


Tiki are like potato chips, you can never just have one
