I will keep scouring for more incredible Tikis on eBay for the T.C. ohana!

Actually, if it was up to me, I'd prefer you didn't, and I know that there are some others that agree with me. Do whatever you want and no one will get mad at you but the thing is...a lot of tiki ebayers will lurk on TC just to get a "heads up" on an auction. I know you mean well but if someone searches and searches and finds a cool auction, maybe something that wasn't listed appropriately, and they think they've finally found a real bargain, a hidden treasure, then it turns up on TC and the whole tiki world knows about it. Now it's gonna go for big bucks and it's not a great find anymore.

Granted, these large tikis don't seem to get much action and I suppose that's due to shipping/pick up issues. I guess it doesn't bother me so much with these big historical tikis but I think you know what I mean? Ahh, do what ya want, that's just how I feel about it. :)
