But in the listing, I noticed the item location was in the same city I live in. So I contacted the seller, and asked if she would allow me to pick-up to avoid the shipping fees ($15.99), and she agreed. Super nice lady, who let me pick them up at her place of employment yesterday during our lunch hours. Without further a-doo.........Groucho, Harpo and Chico WHEW,finally! Pretty rare around these parts, and the first time I have actually held one. I didn't realize how substantial and heavy they are. They are vintage, concaved bottom. One of the bottoms is completely blank, missing the 'made exclusively for the Bali Hai' schtick. They are in really good condition, barely any paint flecks, great color. Me so happy :)
