I picked it up and she went all knowledgeable "that's a tiki mug" so i snapped back "Yes i know, how much?" and she said "£5, their quite rare","Not this style" i responded "this is a tiki Leilani mug THE most common mug of all, I'll give you four pounds for it only because i can't leave them when i see them" she squeaked "you must be a collector" "No I'm THE tiki collector in this town". I hope this isn't a taste of things to come, that seller knowing what it was, ruined the whole heart pounding dry mouth sensation when you find a mug, and the burst of joy when you get it for 50 pence.
