The winner "kohalacharms" is from my observation, new to the tiki collecting scene. This is obvious in that most of the items he/she has bid on of late are what I would consider staples of a collection - things that many long-time collectors should already have in their collection. Of course, my theory could be wrong. kohalacharms could simply have a case of "gotta-have-it-itis" and will simply pay whatever it takes to add the respective item to his/her collection. Whatever the case, in due time this collector will realize how much they are paying for what they are receiving culminating with the eventual response of --- "DOH!" Good sale Heto-Tiki. Where are these bidders when I've got stuff for sale? *** * * The Polynesian Popster * * *** [ Edited by: PolynesianPop on 2003-01-12 09:38 ]
