I think its a good dicussion aswell. I have to wonder, are MMs prices, still that low and now that TikitOny has been selling the mugs and paintings, what does he feel has changed.

I know that there is a Tikishack on the way to Fort Myers beach. Long pole all the way up with a chainsaw cut tiki face at just the top. The guy's assistant, even told me that its just a few simple cuts and that he could learn in a sec. if he wanted to pay attention for a couple of minutes. $350-450 for something like that and I know that they have been there for a couple of years.

But this discussion is good for not just the carvers but appeals to everyone who is selling something. I'm trying to think what I would sell me mug for. I don't even have anything to compare it with. But I could seriously put as much time into a tiny mug then twenty Tikishack $450 tikis.
