Doncha think a $2500.00 opening bid is a little, well, refuckingdiculous? I know these mugs have always been in high demand, but I think it's the seller who's high at this point, considering that the auction is not for the 4 mugs shown, but just for one of each. And I don't care for the "Widowmaker" at all - it ain't tiki, it's an INDIAN fer Chrissakes! At least the Ren Clark 'Headhunter' mug came from a tiki establishment. The text is worth a read - obviously the seller has done a bit o' research on them, but, well, if you've somehow got a boatload of post-Christmas cash burning a hole in your pocket - good luck & happy bidding!
