I was going to post the other day but wanted to get more info. Oh and I've been lurkin for a while but this topic got my motor running.(niki is my wife)

This is what I gathered: The person I phoned at the shop said that it WAS TCers that inflated the prices. But not necessarily by the feeding frenzy. They said they were surprised at one person trying to undercut the other! And at one point even telling them they should charge more! Wow! Some community. So they finally sold EVERYTHING to someone(I think from Canada)who showed them cash.

I remember the Trader Vic's warehouse thread where after the sale, and everyone's happy pics, we learned that there was a sale. IMHO, that was questionable/shady too.

So I applaud the TCer who posted the original ad, because I thought thats what this community was all about, but what happened after, was pure_____. (You can ad your own word, I have several 4 letter ones)

Yes I am a bit bitter too. :wink:
