If I bought them one by one on ebay I'd be paying 5.00 each to ship. Anyway you look at it-it's is a deal! Who says ebay takes all the fun out of the "HUNT" Instead of flea markets and garage sales I hunt sitting on my ass with a cold beer! AHHHHHHHH

That's the, Tiki, spirit. It's always an interesting discussion about "where" and "how much I pay" for Tiki mugs. Lots of emotions, agendas, biases involved. All I know is that was a classic score, and done without getting up at 7 am, trudging through traffic and perusing countless piles of poop to find something Tiki.

The shipping charge for that lot is pretty low too. The new USPS rates have brought about the new Ebay practice of not including shipping costs in the auction listing. I have a had a few unpleasant (that will be $8.55 for one mug) surprises of late. Not pleased.

Overall, I give hunting on Ebay high cost benefit points.
