We wanted to offer them first here on TC and then the remaining mugs will be put on Ebay in a Dutch auction. Price is $35 plus $6 shipping. More info HERE If you would like to buy the first mug designed by Derek and support Hukilau, send an email to [email protected] and we will start a list. Please include your mailing address and how many mugs you are wanting. We will limit the number of mugs to sell here, but we'll decide how many later if the response is high. We want to leave some for at least a small Ebay offering. I'll email those who order with payment details. The Swank Pad Broadcast - If it's Swank... [ Edited by: Swanky on 2004-10-06 09:46 ]

Why would you want to do a DUTCH Auction?--unless you want to keep the auction price DOWN. You two lost your pants because of the Hukilau weather and the thought of you, Swanky, wandering around with a nice suit coat but NO PANTS is more than I can take, so why don't you auction the leftover mugs one by one (and not at the same time) so you can get the most money for them!! :)

I believe the members would appreciate them more than others on Ebay who would purchase them and sell them off later at a higher price. I also sent you an email, but understand if you want to recoop some of your losses by putting them up for auction. They are really cool mugs! Mahalo for the chance either way!

And a Dutch auction also allows you to bid higher. Highest bidders get the mugs. If we get enough bidders, the price will go up some. It's just money now or later and we need it now. So far it looks like about 25 people have emailed. I have not added up how many mugs yet. Keep emailing if you want a mug. I am waiting for the post office to deliver the new boxes and then I'll send out the pre-paid mugs and then I'll start honoring the orders from here. Mahalo!

I should have shipping material next week and I'll take orders until then. I'll email you all the payment info (PayPal or check) then. If you want the purple mug and print (limited edition of 60), email me and I'll forward that to the right person to get that taken care of.
