(amongst other things) http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=29460&item=2165498448 The blowfish! He's been staring at me and making me feel guilty. He would make someone a nice lamp though - just watch out for those spikes! http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=29460&item=2165497005 Cool carving! I am keeping my dark wood carvings but the teak tiki is for sale... http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=29460&item=2165454100 Why am I selling this book? I really must be losing my mind! Oh, it's hard when a collector has to start un-collecting!

But my collection is so small I couldn't part with anything without huge gulping salty sobs of anguish. I've packed everything away (it all fits in one apple box) and shoved it out of sight so I'm not even tempted. Instead I'm dumping tons of non-Tiki books, clothes, all manner of stuff that will go in a massive yard sale on the 29th. Good luck to you, wish I could buy the puffer and Tiki, but there it is... aloha, em.

Luckily, I've so much non-Tiki crap to unload, I don't have to make a dent in anything even vaguely Oceanic. Trader Woody

T tikifish Member Toronto,Canada Joined: Mar 25, 2002 Posts: 2720	T tikifish Posted posted on Wed, Apr 2, 2003 7:09 PM More stuff! I almost took this one off halfway through the listing, I decided to keep it, then changed my mond again. Sigh! Downsizing is hard! It's a Trader Vic's book - with drink recipes! http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=29460&item=2168401904 Here's some flotsam and jetsam from my tiki shelves! I decided to jettison anything that wasn't ceramic. Yes, I know, I'm being weird. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=29460&item=2168417893

T Tiki-bot Member Joined: Jun 24, 2002 Posts: 1345	T Tiki-bot Posted posted on Wed, Apr 9, 2003 1:14 PM Love the magnets, too. Another item to add to my "eBay watch list of stuff I really want but will probably go too high for me to afford" (Owning a new house is great, but cuts seriously into my eBay impulse shopping). And what's in those mug-magnets? Looks like oatmeal :wink: BTW, did you get my check for the fish? I sent it on the 25th and noticed it hasn't cleared yet.
T tikifish Member Toronto,Canada Joined: Mar 25, 2002 Posts: 2720	T tikifish Posted posted on Wed, Apr 9, 2003 1:30 PM The cheque went into the bank and the fish is shipped! I hope there isn't any trouble at the border with it - I don't think they get too many blowfish going across!

The 'Saucer House' as we call it (actually a 29th floor condo with a big curved window wall) is ours! Now the important work begins - the making of the TIKI COMPUTER ROOM! The room is 6 feet by 6 feet, so it shouldn't take to along to get that all important 'cluttered look'. :)

I think he had a hard time adjusting to our American ways at first, but I think he's going to be okay. The other tikis still laugh every time he says 'about'.
T tikifish Member Toronto,Canada Joined: Mar 25, 2002 Posts: 2720	T tikifish Posted posted on Tue, Apr 15, 2003 5:29 AM Give him beer and donuts fortnightly and he should do ok. Also you may want to take him oot and aboot whenever the temperature drops below freezing, just to remind him of the old country.

Good news for me. Unfortunately, it doesn't get that cold here in Southern Cal. He'll just have to adjust.
