This one did have a glaze issue where there was a glaze skip at the bottom.

Have seen these mugs sell before on eBay for even a bit less than this say $40.00 plus bucks or so.
Again I had no reason to want this to sell high, but for this.
I have seen other mugs that are brand new and not that great sell for hundred's.

Don't get it myself.
Will we see a day when old original menus go for less than new ones?
Yep, yesterday and it was a Disney Trader Sam's menu.

Will the day come when a molded plastic replica caving is highly sought after and worth as much as a Tiki Diablo or Bosko one of a kind hand carved original?

Yes, again Disney.

So where will it end years from now? who will be top sales on the eBay, if there is still an eBay many years from now.

I do know on eBay at this time it's hard to find any old mugs for sale, so maybe people are just holding onto the old mugs, waiting for a chance to trade an old original mug for a new "Fake Tikiā„¢" Star wars tiki mug.

It will be the smoking mister tiki thing from Wal-Mart, THAT will be the MOST sought after tiki item in the future.

Get them now while they are cheap!
