Tiki Statistics - Collecting Tiki

I've never had much time to scrounge through thrift stores and flea markets, but every time I have done so, I've been skunked... until today! Ended up getting two mugs (a Tiki Leilani and an OMC-type). Woo hoo! Anyway, my success rate of finding mugs at thrift stores/flea markets is a pitiful 2% (one find per fifty visits). All of you good folks seem to grab them before I get there. Or maybe my Tiki hunting techniques need some work. My question is what would you estimate is percentage that you successfully find tiki mugs at second hand shops and flea markets? Tikipedia
