Jungle Trader,

I've often wondered the same thing. We get caught up in the intensity of acquiring be it eBay, thrifting, checking the websites of Tiki Central, Tiki Farm, Munktiki, or Shag daily for new items and then purchasing with ferocity any Tiki item we don't posses. After the item arrives we covet it for 5 minutes then place it on the shelf with countless others only to occasionally admire them, show them off to friends, or use them if an occasion permits or even leave them in boxes until the day we build our home Tiki space. It's pretty sick....oh crap, I forgot to check Shagmart this morning!!!
