TW Trader Woody Member Tiki Manor, Forest of Bowland,UK Joined: Mar 25, 2002 Posts: 2301	TW Trader Woody Posted posted on Thu, Nov 7, 2002 8:25 AM Waaahhh..... Another eBayer refusing to sell to us foreign folk! You're missing out on the $$$, Pup....our money is good! Can I point out to all who don't ship overseas that it's incredibly easy to do so. Sticking on an airmail sticker takes half a second; the customs form takes 10. If someone wants it shipped surface, you don't even have to bother with the airmail sticker. You get your money in $$ via Paypal, and everyone's laughing. Trader Woody
T Traderpup Tiki Socialite Long Beach, CA Joined: Mar 26, 2002 Posts: 1055	T Traderpup Posted posted on Thu, Nov 7, 2002 11:32 AM I've had some difficulties with some international bidders in the past, so I usually list items with US shipping only. I'd be happy to honor any Tiki Central member bids, regardless of shipping destination. I put some faith in my fellow Tc'ers. So feel free to bid! (I'm assuming ebay won't have a restriction on your bid based on my shipping preferences) Okay, Woody! This is the part where you feel guilted into placing a bid now! :D

F fatuhiva Member Melbourne Beach, FL Joined: Mar 25, 2002 Posts: 638	F fatuhiva Posted posted on Thu, Nov 7, 2002 5:21 PM Is that a real beachcomber head, or one of the repros?
T Traderpup Tiki Socialite Long Beach, CA Joined: Mar 26, 2002 Posts: 1055	T Traderpup Posted posted on Thu, Nov 7, 2002 5:48 PM The only repro I'm aware of thats close is the Beachbum Berry mug offered by Bosko done in a similar style... the one I'm offering says Don the Beachcomber around the base. If there's a company making repros, please let me know about them.

T Traderpup Tiki Socialite Long Beach, CA Joined: Mar 26, 2002 Posts: 1055	T Traderpup Posted posted on Thu, Nov 7, 2002 6:19 PM Well, Bong-- I blame you and Al for my mug liquidation sale.... seems you guys FORCED me to go to Oceanic Arts... and now I have a evil, dirty habit I have to support somehow... the creation of my Tiki lounge! Turning a messy, packrat garage into a poolside tropical paradise will take a few $$. Besides, I always found the Beachcomber mug a bit of an oddball in my collection. Ya gotta collect what you love, otherwise, it all seems kinda pointless! :tiki:
T Tiki_Bong Member Huntington Beach, CA Joined: Mar 25, 2002 Posts: -16	T Tiki_Bong Posted posted on Sat, Nov 9, 2002 11:00 AM Trader Pup, Speaking of which, how did the lamp from OA turn out?
T Tiki_Bong Member Huntington Beach, CA Joined: Mar 25, 2002 Posts: -16	T Tiki_Bong Posted posted on Sat, Nov 9, 2002 11:08 AM Trader Pup, I've already been outbid on the Don bust mug by someone from Texas (who are our members from TX that would outbid a fellow TC member ?) That's OK because at the last minute I'm going to bid $75 (or more or not?) that way when they read this message they'll bid > $75 and my good friend Trader will come out ahead! Aloha from the professional Shill ...
H Humuhumu Member San Francisco Joined: Aug 22, 2002 Posts: 3691	H Humuhumu Posted posted on Sat, Nov 9, 2002 11:48 AM I'm considering that phallic monkey decanter -- I need something to offset all the topless hula chicks in the bar! Gecko's Tangaroa plaque is helping a lot in that regard, tho. :)
T tikifish Member Toronto,Canada Joined: Mar 25, 2002 Posts: 2720	T tikifish Posted posted on Sun, Nov 10, 2002 6:14 AM Shipping internationally is easy, I agree! It's getting the money that's hard!!What kind of trouble do you have with international bidders? My problem? I get all you americans sending me American money orders that I can't cash... ones that say 'CASHABLE ONLY IN THE US AND IT'S POSSESSIONS' on the front. Literally. There's a joke in there somewhere, I'll leave it to one of you witty people to make it!

H Humuhumu Member San Francisco Joined: Aug 22, 2002 Posts: 3691	H Humuhumu Posted posted on Wed, Nov 13, 2002 9:41 PM Argh! Didn't get the monkey decanter. If it's any consolation, traderpup, I'm responsible for bumping beastgrl up to fifteen smackeroos! And if beastgrl is a tc'er in disguise, I'm sorry.
T TikiManiac Member Joined: Sep 27, 2002 Posts: 161	T TikiManiac Posted posted on Thu, Nov 14, 2002 7:33 AM Traderpup...you did really well on the Beachcomber mug, especially considering that you did not know its origin and it wasn't in mint condition. Congrats! I think that monkey decanter is very cool and extremely phallic piece and you could have gotten more money for it.
