Nice find..and a stellar price. These are very popular ebay-wise. They consistently pull in large bids as was already posted. People sure seem to like that mug...although not sure why. These were solely Hawaii TV mugs, no? I am inclined to think so. I know some mugs were exclusive to the place. One such mug has been referred to as "pig fetus in a jar". Not my term, but actually kind of accurate. Great find, and a greater price. Every time I look in stores here in SF, it's othing..or$50 Harvey's mugs. One of hese days though! midnite
