To be fair, Kenike, the difference here was that, on his first post here on TC, jmack asked for people that were interested in the mugs to e-mail him, giving them hope that they could get these for affordable prices, and then did not respond to their mails, but plopped them straight on e-bay. And these folks were not just me-want-all mug collectors, but valiant urban archeologists who specialized in collecting Mauna Loa material. So I understand their disappointment, just as I understand that jmack decided to get the best dollar possible for his loot. At least he was open about it, and did not simply disappear, like this other benefactor recently that promised to spread his newly found mug wealth among the TC Ohana and has never been heard of again since.
