I'm kind of out of the collecting game, especially ebay.
It is too cut throat and filled with bs now.
People who use thier seemingly unlimited funds to suck
up EVERYTHING sucked the fun out of even watching ebay for me.
I went to the Kahiki auction long ago and I won the first bid
on ALL of the table lamps. ($40.00 bucks)
That meant that I could have taken them all for $400.00.
But there were other people there and they were so afraid I would do
just that. And I had the cash to do it on me.
But I did not buy them all I just got two and walked.
Now these people were STRANGERS, No TC, No Ohanna.
Oddly enough one of the lamps I let someone eles buy went to...
You got it Mr golden wallet. ($600.00)
So you see if I did not have the Aloha, Ohana bs spirit.
Mr golden wallet would not have one now.
People who have met this guy say he's great.
In fact one guy I met hated him at first and now loves him.
What changed? The great trades he gives you.
Or the flat out free stuff.
It would be nice to have the funds to spend 3 to 5 thousand
a month on tiki.
But even if I could I would not do it.
I just don't see the Aloha or Ohana in that.
I'm sorry.
