Just to ad to what I was saying above, because I remember that when you came onto Tiki Central you were initially shy to say you were a dealer, fearing to come across as just another commercial train jumper. Well, the difference between a dealer who knows and cares for Tiki and one for whom it is just a commercial addition was clearly visible in your store. I have rarely seen such well done mixture of vintage and nouveaux Tiki items grouped together in such a way that even I, who rarely finds a Tiki item I have not seen before, felt inspired to search, and dig for stuff. Really what an antique mall stall SHOULD inspire. And I did feel it deserved to be in a better location with more foot traffic.
