Bad Kitty!!! :evil:

Kidding, actually, just kidding. Geesh, are people still complaining about this? I mean, it's sooooo last year! Coco Loco, I'm glad you lightened up on this as well.

Hey, if folks want something to complain about, try buying a Shecky mug. Those are going for really close to what this Ohana Hut is going for, and no one seems to be bitching about that. I joined TC around the time that they were blowing those out for almost nothing, but didn't really realize what it was until it was too late. And I know people who have multiple Shecky's, but they won't part with a single extra. And why? Because it's become "too valuable". Just like that scene in Dirty Rotten Scoundrels - Drink from the mug? Why, it's far too valuable! Sell it?!? Why, I'm far too attached to it!!!

I guess the point I'm trying to make is that we all have to realize that once these puppies' availability has gone to a secondary market, then the price is going to be sky high. Therefore, I feel that this seller should be able to ask whatever the market bears. Who knows, maybe nobody will meet the reserve, and no one will use the Buy It Now feature. But I doubt it. Someone out there will want it bad enough to splurge on it.

Can we all please just move on to the next Tiki Central mug design to give everyone something fresh to bitch and moan about?
