I've heard everything but an actual dollar value from you guys who have seen it. Put your knowledge and reputation on the line and name a price. Please, please, please. What's wrong, afraid to be wrong? Moki, thanks. A valid, quantitive appraisal of the collection. All I want to know now is, should I waste my time parting it out to make more than I would for selling the whole thing in one transaction. I do not know a thing about tiki mugs at all. Frankly, I consider mug people to be the bottom feeders of the tiki universe. Like the nickel and dime welfare, foodstamps subspecies of a tiki scavenger, rather than a true collector. Hyenas, roaming lice infested second hand stores hoping to find a Tikibob for $5. Oh the joy!!!But they spend money in the capitalist scheme of things, so welcome cheapskates, I have a collection of old, used dishes for sale. Can I make a profit off you? Maybe. I'm trying to figure vthat out right now. Please tell me mug whiners("someone bought my mug at the last second on ebay and I really wanted it. Wah, wah, wah!). I want to know what you guys really think of this collection! Knowledge is power!! I know nothing of mugs. I've learned more than I care to know in the last six hours, regarding mugs.All mug collections look the same to me. They have stupid colors too. How much should I pay maximum,for this entire set to realize a retail profit of say, $100 total, if I buy it and part it out? If you are from California, do not try to answer this question. It sounds like a question on the math part of the CAHSEE, and I know more than half of you cannot pass this test. Californians, look at the person to your right, chances are one of you is too stupid to do 13 year old math. Now if you could only figure out which one YOU are. So early indications of the quality of this collection seems to indicate that it sucks. Should I not try to sell it then? Can I not mak a profit off this transaction? Are profits not tiki or something?
