Good luck tyler- a couple tips - set your auctions to end on Sundays. Also, if you set your starting price lower, you'll get more interest - and usually get a higher ending price.

BTW, I like those tikis!

30" pineapple tiki on eBay.
One of the last of my old style available
Pulled the last one early because someone offered me 200 for it in my driveway while I was measuring out a box for it!

Welcome any feedback - and bidders of course.
Here it is:

Here is another one of my carvings from about a year ago!
NO MINIMUM!!! it will sell to someone.
One of my old Florida styles from about the time I found TC and style started evolving.
Deep cuts, big on contrast, unique sort of braids.
Definitely a one-of-a-kind.
Happy bidding!

18 hours, that would have been a good amount to spend on carving a tiki.

Thought I already added this here.
Maybe I was just a little too china-eyed to see what I was doing.
Anyways, new style for me, 23" tall Satin Poly finish.
Not my higher end stuff, meant to be affordable,
haven't gotten any feed back on this style yet at all.

Whattya think?

Somebody tell me how to make that shorter!

Anyways - this little guy was a study in the line structure for a larger Lono sculpture that is now on its way to Canada. He is water sealed and urethaned, 22" tall, very dense wood.
NO MINIMUM so he will sell to someone!
He will add a lot of character for someone's favorite tiki hideaway for a very long time.
He's been guarding my fishing gear out on the dock for about the past 5 months & holding up great.
Before I ship him, I will add another coat of thane just for good measure.
lemme know if you have any questions I didn't answer already.

Thanks for checkin it out!

Bid away T'ville!

TIKIVILLE posted on 07/02/2009

lol .....that would be sweet huh ? ( I mean , no I'm hoping to be outbid numerous times)
It's not how many people bid its the quality of the bidders! ( does that help ? )
or look at it this way ,
this work of art will go to somebody that will put it on a pedestal and treasure it not in the rumpus room next to the stair master and stack of future yard sale investments.
( still It would be nice to get ANOTHER BOSS PIECE from your yard!)

OK, apparently the first listing was removed from e-bay because I did not name the species from which the bone came! So here is the new listing:

A couple of you were watching this one, hope you can find it again.
Thanks for looking!

The Manaia is still the only one on a straight no minimum auction, but I added some listings for other items I'd like to move out to make room for new work.

Identify yourself as from Tiki Central & I'll split the shipping with you.

Grand Members - I'll pay the shipping in full in the continental US if Item is purchased at full asking price.

Eight hours till auction end & only at 99 cents.
Here is a chance to get a hand carved bone pendant on the cheap.
There will be more similar pieces in the future.

I have not started offering these as a wholesale item or even on my own website yet, so this is just an outlet while I am having fun making one at a time.
