I saw a couple of items that would lead one to believe they are actual Trader Vic's pieces but aren't.

The first is item number 3709570202 with a title that reads "1963 Trader Vic's American Art Pottery Bowl".

What's kind of odd is that in the body of the description it states "...a nice piece of American art pottery it is a glazzed bowl or candy dish but I'm not sure what it is"

The title states 1963 Trader Vic's (blah, blah,blah). So this person is aware of all that TV's is, yet not sure if this is a candy dish or what. Right.

The bowl is cheap junk to boot (who's 'my92redtruck'?)

Next is item 3902355475 the 'Trader Vic's KAVA BOWL hawaii tiki mug vintage style'. This person does cop to the fact it's a remake, but the state "I've been waiting FOREVER to finally get my hands on one of these babies", to what... turn it on ebay?

They also state its "actually more beautiful than the originals". Right. (Who's astro-lounge)

NOTE - please do not come unglued if any of these sellers are ultra-sensitive TC members!

(just having a little fun folks.)
