I recently (like TODAY) purchased a lot of vintage aloha shirts with the sole intent of bringing them to the oasis to help a few TCers get decked out in the preferred uniform. Unfortunately, I did not decide to do this until all the vendor space was sold out (I dont really have that much product anyway)

I will bring this lot of shirts with me and if any of your are interested in trying something on and buying one, just let me know and we can coordinate a time. I am pricing them all at $20 each.

"NO vending should take place in any of the Caliente Tropics rooms. We feel that it really takes away from the special marketplace and it isn't really fair to vendors who have paid money to have a vending space. Please be respectful of this.

Cheers! "

These are all mens shirts and range in size from Medium to XL.

Most of them are barkcloth and all are vintage. Ui Mai Kai, Don Loper, Sears, Pomare Tahiti, Iolani and more.

The POINT IS........Vend out of your room (or anywhere else on the property) and YOU ARE RIPPING OFF all 30 of the Vendors!! THINK about it. The "Secret Tiki Oasis Vending Police" are onto you!!


This is what I get out of the above. He sells out of his room so, that's minus 80.00 for vending space that everyone else who is vending, pays. Then he sells 25 shirts at 20.00 each. That's 500.00. So, That's 500.00 that won't be spent on the vendors' area. Catch my drift?? So, let's say you aka vendor rents a space, for 80.00, and you sell 80.00 worth of stuff. You say, well, I broke even. Well, actually, you would've been ahead 16.67 (split between all the vendors if that 500.00 were to be spent in the VENDORS AREA). And Sixteen Dollars and Sixty Seven Cents would be at least 2 killer cocktails at the REEF for all YOUR HARD WORK. So, while we all sit outside he sits in A/C and makes 500.00 or 16.67 out of our pockets!

The secret "vending police" will be watching!!!!
