I think there is a big difference between someone who makes a living going out and finding some tiki stuff and passing it on at a reasonable mark up or to trade, and someone who goes and buys exclusive/limited items just to sell. I personally have no problems with someone making a living selling tiki stuff, I actually appreciate the fact that they spend lots of their time locating cool stuff. I do have an issue with non-tiki yahoos that go to the thrift store and find a tiki Bob for a buck and sell it on ebay for a hundred.

Dr. TikiMojo, I saw your stand at FI and talked to you enough to recognize your not an Ebay Pirate (are they the new Ebay Monkeys?). Just because your a seller, doesn't make you a pirate, that term should be reserved for those who have no affiliation with tiki and are just out pillaging.

Hey I recently bought some vintage Star Wars stuff at a garage sale and sold it on ebay for like 200% markup, does this make me a non-star wars yahoo or a shrewd shopper?
