Aloha fellow tikiphiles!

Hey I'm still a newbie round these parts, so I want to get in on the Coconut Monkey LoveFest!!!
So here's my 2cents to play...
-One: Munktiki makes icy hot mugz with designs to make people go-gonuts for coconuts...agreed?!

-Two and Three: Conspiracy theory, Tiki Oasis 06 (Hanalei) and Trader Mort's (Eli Hedley)mugs...lotsa angry folks empty handed, BILLION$$$ to be made on eBay?!

-Four: Oh yeah, the pricey but available...for over a week, "Mysterious Eyeball"?!

Ssooo here's where I'm going...I'M A MUG LOVER TOO! and I gotta tell ya, I get pretty chapped when I:

• set my alarm
• open multiple windows for checkout
• confirm my 30mbs fiber-optic connection is blazing
• make loan arrangement with offshore bank account
  _and Dang! took too long to decide, had to pee or the dog jumped in my lap...BLINK! SOLD OUT! Crikey!
  Cheez Whiz! Rock,Paper,Scissors...I'm a loser!

Oh yeah, and except for the 'Mysterious Eyeball' Limit One...I was so nervous and keystroke happy waiting for the green light to purchase that I "pre-clicked" 20-times and sent an order for $2100.00!!! Tee-Hee-Tiki-Ha-Haw! Stuckie & Paul did not allow that outrageous purchase...thank the tiki-Godz for that one!!.

I pm'd a few collectors, made some good trades or at cost purchases...a friendship or two amoungst our ohana. Hey, some folks are willing to share or giveaway thier rare Munktiki's...go figure?!

--Now back to Coconut Wired...oops, no that's Chongolio and TC Ohana Mug - Oooooh that's already got us tiki-peeps in an uproar...Anyway, ceramic Coconut Monkeys...each one different?!?

I think backdoor strategy, email [email protected] ...after all I tried to get $2100 dollars worth of eyeballs right? Here's my message from 48hrs after TO6...

Aloha Paul & Stuckie!
I saw photo’s from TO6 that you guys sold ceramic ‘coconut monkeys’? Do you have any left and are willing to sell???

Good News! Yes the Coconut Monkeys will be for sale on the website soon! They are not limited edition mugs so no worries you can get as many as you like for years to come.

Cheers!

Come on jones, make a point?

Well all I know is, Munktiki makes icy hot mugz with designs to make people go-gonuts for coconuts...-AND-
that is a GREAT THING in my opinion. They and other artists creating art and ceramic collectables, Limited or not, that folks go crazy over and want to have! Way Cool,place to be!!!
So for myself and my horde massive Munktiki collection of 'TWO', I get to look through Kingstiedye,Atomichick and other 'Ultra-Munktiki' collections and go DANG!I'm a loser...NOT!!

To close from my rrrambling, I suffer from tikimuggingitis and severe potterydysplacia after loss of any eBay auctions, Gecko's, tOnys, Diablos, C'Als, Demons, Pop-n-VanTikis'and Jordan Designs...you name it I want'em! I'll keep clicking along and someday I too will never leave my hut...the waters will rise and me and my tikis will become a natural reef for a colony of SeaMonkeys!!!

Dig'n da kine workz Munktiki, geev'em Paul & Stuckie!!!
Shaka Y'all and Flip-flOp-flipPp....
