Sure ebay is cool, but you kinda expect to find things there. Its when you are poking around in a musty, cramped little shop and stumble across a tiki mug in the back corner out of the way, on a dusty shelf. It's like finding burried treasure. Then you walk up to the counter with this massive goofy grin on your face "Just this today" handing over your new prized posession. They look down at the ugly mug they thought they would never sell and think "thank god for that". You then go home and tell your partner/freinds/family about it and show them and they give you the same look as the shop assistant "Righty-oh. this one is a few sandwiches short of a picnic". And you cant stop thinking about it and you go to bed all warm and fuzzy (maybe that is just the Mai Tais talking).
