Geez, Danny, it couldn't be more perfect! The little shapes along the top are very kooche-esque. |

Miles the print is great! Even better in person. I couldn't wait to get my hands on it. Thanks TC Tribe for the Tiki Ti drink menu/get well card and my personal phone call from THE King Kukulele! I'm feeling better already :) I have to say, your the nicest group of people I've never met! Mahalo ~ a-a-Achoo! |

Frames, frames, frames. Miles and I were talking about this yesterday, so what I'm going to do is this, for peeps that wanna know.
I figure out prices for both and start a new thread in the collecting forum if the demand is there. Gracias |

Chiki, very good. I would go custom, of course! By the way, I picked up my solid mahogany bar top from Soboba yesterday. Now I have to build the box that it is going to rest on. The Ocean Room is coming along. Cheers, KT [ Edited by: Kreaky Tiki on 2003-11-21 17:12 ] |

OK! the Tiki Ti prints are ready to be shipped now...as of this coming week i'll be advertising on my web site and on ebay until they are gone... those on the list will recieve an email with details about how to make a payment for their print. if at this time you decide that your Xmas dollar will go further else where, you should reply indicating the case is such. if i recieve NO reply from the interested party i'll have to make the assumtion that the interest has faded and i will move their name off of the list so that i can make room for the next interested buyer... thanks to EVERYONE who has shown interest in either of these prints. they came out beautiful! a special thanks to Harvest the print house that did an AMAZING job on this series of reproductions...they really are cool. for that mater a thank you as well to those that recommended them as the print source in CA...i'm talking to you Piet and Lisa...Andrew B and another who mentioned Harvest TB...all of these cats have had work done by harvest...happily! a VERY special thanks needs to go to those that built own and operate the best bar on the west coast...you know the name by now and if you HAVEN'T been there i feel sad for you...make it a priority next time you visit lovely LA! you will NOT be sorry you made the effort to visit there unless you have more than one round and neglect your body's need for water... |

hey kids yesterday was a great day indeed...my little girl turned one...HAPPY BIRTHDAY AVA! i am getting paypal set up and arranging shipping materials ....so until next week i'll have to let you all sit on it...i can still only ballpark around the whole shipping issue though i can't fathom it being more than $10-12 bucks for domestic speedy delivery...they're all going out UPS packed flat...international delivery will be addressed on a case specific basis...tax issues will certainly be an issue to consider i do imagine that Tapa will be a little more costly to ship than the Tiki Ti as it is considerably larger... to save time in the email rounds (if you happen upon this post while waiting for your print) you can drop an email to me with your mailing address and email address...this way i can get to the shipping with as little hunting for email adresses as possible... i wish all tiki centralites a great big turkey or two ... bring on the pies! see you at the Tiki Ti when they open again! |

hey kids...apologies to all for the wait...i wanted these prints to be shipped prior to Xmas the story behind the delay a brown out hit my machine in december and after a minor surgery all of my info has been redeemed thank god...Xmas was overwhelming and seemed to engulf the entire month of december by having my family on the road to the corners of california every weekend...something i vow NEVER to do again... i have been carving out a block of lenolium so i can officiate the authenticity of the print with a stamp of custom design...packing/protective materials and prints are stacked and waiting... PAYPAL has been activated and as soon as i recieve notice of an order for the Tiki Ti print i'll ship it out...payment may also be mailed to directly to me in the form of check or money order...for my mailing address you'll have to drop and email my way to [email protected] don't want to post my address for personal security reasons... is also the email address you shold credit with your print purchase if you opt to pay with paypal the tapa print is still being arranged and i expect it'll be another week before i get my next lot of images from the printer...sorry more info to come this weekend... sincere thanks to Danny G and the Mikes over at the Tiki Ti...incidentally i had a strange dream last night that Mike Sr was the owner of a plot of land that contained top secret access to 1 of only 9 holes on the earth's surface that lead to a molten river that flows from center of our planet...i need must need more sleep or a couple of chichis... aloha! |

hello all just a reminder that i am now ready to ship you YOUR Tiki Ti print... i have finally implemented a system that'll protect your reproduction and speed your print to you while economizing the effort it takes to send payment...all you have to do is visit this web page http://www.kooch-e-koo.com/GALLERY/HTML/prints.html hit the paypal button that says "BUY NOW" this'll send you directly to a secure page with all the 411 i need to get you the correct edition...the only thing i'll need from you other than a payment and address to ship to is your TC ID so i can note your purchase on my list... i've shipped 6 this week already and those people are bound to recieve in the next day if they haven't already...i am sending fed ex 2nd day delivery...you'll also recieve a collection of various beautiful island tunes old and new when you order your print...PERFECT for your next intimate swillfest! the other option to compensate for the cost of the print is to send a check or money order to me at my house directly...in which case you'll HAVE to drop me an email with a request for my mailing address... if you are opting to NOT endorse your previous election to acquire a reproduction...please let me know so that i can bump up the edition numbers for those that are still interested...you can send me an email or personal message notifying me of your decline or simply respond to this thread indicating such is the case... MAHALO and ALOHA fellow Tiki Centralites... i'm off to the tiki ti for a CHICHI! |

Received my print today! WOW! UNBELIEVABLE! It truly is even better in person, the images online really do not do it justice. Can't wait for the Tapa's print to be released. Mahalo! |

Danny is right, Tapa is huge, same size as the original and just as vivid. If you got the cash, grab them both. I sit and stare at Tapa everynight and discover new stuff, I am lucky enough to have the original over my bed! |
