Swizzle makes a good point... how many of the items we find in thrift stores or antique shops were originally stolen from tiki restaurants? Even if we didn't steal them ourselves, aren't we supporting this black market kinda like ivory buyers? Maybe mugs were originally purchased, but menus and ashtrays? (No, i'm going to lose sleep over this, I just think it's interesting.)
