WHO THE FUCK CARES? To the seller: Don't say what you have no proof of. To the potential buying public: Don't buy it if you don't want it and don't believe in it. I looked at the whole damned thread and said "hmm", shrugged my shoulders, am writing this, and will shortly wash dishes and leaf-blower the driveway. Where are the current mods? We would have locked this this topic in the early days of TC pages ago.

I've had a few requests to move this topic off the board, but it's going to stay and here's why.

This thread can be used as evidence that haughtee knowingly committed fraud in the misrepresentation of the panel she is selling on ebay:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/MAI-KAI-RELIC-RARE-Vintage-Tiki-Mid-Century-Modern-Polynesian-Pop-ROOM-DIVIDER-/322257827490?hash=item4b081036a2:g:IjMAAOSwdIFX02-R

It has been clearly pointed out that the Mai Kai has confirmed that this panel is not from the Mai Kai. Haughtee is obviously now aware of this fact yet continues to misrepresent the history of this panel. This is indeed fraud.

From the FBI: AUCTION FRAUD
Auction fraud involves fraud attributable to the misrepresentation of a product advertised for sale through an Internet auction site or the non-delivery of products purchased through an Internet auction site.

Whoever buys this panel may eventually see this thread and learn that they were a victim of fraud. If YOU are that buyer, here's where you can report the crime:

Miami-Dade Police Department:
http://www.miamidade.gov/police/economic-crimes-bureau.asp

FBI:
https://www.ic3.gov/crimeschemes.aspx

Additionally, I will not be locking this thread at this time as the continued bumps raises the visibility.

NOTE: Since posting the above, the seller has updated the auction description, details below.
