Somebody must have scared this seller. Not only did he immediately end the auction last week, he also immediately changed his eBay ID. I don't think he ended up with a print because he hasn't listed anything under his new name.

However, I'm sure you've seen the flood of Enchanted Tiki Room merchandise that's all over eBay now from other sellers. I was surprised that the first serigraph from the event sold on eBay so early...at 11:45 AM on Saturday (while the event was still going on). And by mid afternoon, there were probably a hundred items listed, and now...probably many hundreds of tems. Once again, this reeks of desperation and just seems a little sleazy to have to turn a profit so quickly. I don't have anything against selling things on eBay, but my god, the ink on their cash register receipt was barely dry when some of these things listed. I guess that's just the way of the world and people will always exploit these things to make money if they can.
