Hey Kono, I think I may have been at your favorite antique store yesterday. The one dealer has about 8 to 10 tiki mugs. To pricey for me though. All the mugs were around $15-$20 a piece. 2 Trader Vic coconuts, Kon Tiki S&P, Al Harrington mug, 3 or 4 more mugs...Sound about right? If its not the same place and your interested I'll tell you where they are.
Half the battle is finding them at a good price. Don't like buying mugs that have already been found unless their cheap.

Yeah, that's the place. Where there any wood tikis or did someone buy them all up?? That's the place I got the 14" Tahitian tiki and the Bora Bora tiki. I thought it was kinda expensive but I'm starting to think $30 for that 14incher (no jokes please) was pretty good. Last time I was there, there was a carved wooden Hawaiian bowl supported by two figures and a Cook Island tiki. I kinda wanted to go back and get one or both of them but that's the way it goes if they're gone. Twice I've been since that dealer started and he seems to get new stuff in on a regular basis (well, twice anyway). Only had about five mugs two weeks ago. Didja buy anything??

Yeah, those mugs are way too much. I got my two Al Harrington's for a buck each at Savers on OBT. All those mugs I can get cheaper on ebay incl shipping.

Kailuageoff: The Mai Kai apts are apparently old. See Hot Lava's post above, he remembers them from 20yrs ago.

Are koi edible?? They're carp so if you think carp's edible...(some people do) :D
