The store has moved around in Berlin several times over the past few years. Here is the current address: Class of Berlin Große Hamburger Straße 19a 10115 Berlin, Germany http://www.classofberlin.com/ You’ll note the store is no longer called Rock-A-Tiki. The man behind the register explained that Rock-A-Tiki and five other stores were “combined” into a single umbrella store called Class of Berlin. The place is very small. It has a ground floor and also a basement reached by a narrow staircase. Half the basement is devoted to a tiny single-seat barbershop. A man was midway through a haircut when I walked down there. That was certainly unexpected. The merchandise is mostly quirky and/or “vintage” clothing and accessories. There seemed to be a lot of denim clothes and leather bomber jackets in particular. There is almost nothing tiki. I noted two obscene pictures on the wall featuring hot-rod tikis copulating with human women. There was also a tiny selection of aloha shirts amongst the merchandise, and… well… that was about it. It’s an interesting store, but don’t go expecting to find things tiki. It really doesn't belong in this forum anymore.
