Malibu man was Zach Zachary . His son carved the largest one. I sold 9, traded one for a ton of glassware, and gave two away. I had a man from Las Vegas want to buy the most expensive one I had there, but I didn't have the means to process a credit card. I talked to Ona later in the day and he said I should have asked someone else if I could use their pos card terminal. Damn! If I only thought of that an hour sooner. It was a $625 mistake. Oh well! I only did this whole thing as a learning experience, and too bad that was a costly lesson to learn. Anyway, it may have a happy ending because he wants me to ship it to Hawaii, to his other house. I asked why he would want to do that with so many Hawaiian carvers there(I assume)and he told me he doesn't like the Hawaiian style and that is what they make there(go figure.) I can only hope he follows through and contacts me later. I'll post my booth pictures when the signal improves and I can get to shutterfly. I've been trying for an hour now...stupid free weak wireless signal...
