Tiki is not realistic. Collecting international vintage tiki mugs is not realistic. I am not selling to the realistic "Joe the bidder". SERIOUS COLLECTORS ONLY.

If anyone has any vintage mugs from Mexico or Spain that I don't have already, I will happily pay the same prices I am asking for. I would trade too.

I will not lower the prices. Ever. These are unique mugs that took me years to find in the wilderness of Spain and Mexico. Worth every penny. Awesome antiques are not cheap.

It surprises me that a pop historian like yourself fail to see the importance of these historic pieces... If ultra rare vintage international tiki mugs are not worth a couple hundred dollars, collecting tiki sucks.

No one has them. The mug manufacturer is a complete mystery for everyone. (except me :) ) Key pieces of the worldwide tiki puzzle. This are the originals, not copies like the ones you sold (at high prices) a few years ago with your Kon-Id brand. (back in the day, how much you sold the Maori face replica for?)

Sorry, no bargains here, they are not that expensive either. I repeat, I would pay the same prices if someone was selling something similar. But nobody is. Supply and demand. I'm the sole provider. I set the prices.

We will see...

Let the buyers decide.
