Macwalker, welcome to Tiki Central.
Gabbahey, thank you for that honest answer. I cringed when I saw that question because those usually get a crapstorm of smartass answers and accusations of profiteering. People come to TikiCentral because they expect to find experts here and instead their first impression of the Tiki community is that we are a bunch of pompous snobs. If you think they are only here to make a quick buck, if your hard-earned expertise is to valuable to share - you don't have to post anything. OK, end of rant :D

Well said. I honestly believe that most of us on Tiki Central use United States currency or some other government currency in our everyday lives. That means we have to give things a monetary value. We do not exchange wampum for items and we do not exchange items for say yoga classes or macrame or power crystals. Tarot readings are not exchanged for items or aura readings. We tend to pay money for things. And 99 percentage of us do not answer questions about how much something is worth with douchebag answers like "It's worth what someone is willing to pay".

ATTENTION ANYONE UPSET BY QUESTIONS OF MONETARY WORTH OF TIKI ITEMS:

DON'T CLICK THE DAMN LINKS WHEN SOMEONE ASKS ABOUT THE MONETARY WORTH OF TIKI ITEMS.

ALSO IT MAY NOT HAVE OCCURRED TO YOU.....DON'T JUMP INTO A POOL IF YOU CAN'T SWIM. ALSO....DON'T HIT THAT BEEHIVE WITH A BAT IF YOU ARE ALLERGIC TO BEES.
