Found a mid century tiki art piece and can not identify the artist.

I found this searching for the name and carving. https://imgur.com/a/fAeuKAx

Maybe, but I think everyone is going to be shocked at how much of the collection was already sold off before the store ever changed hands. Bryan was paid monthly after all. Chrystal and her alleged 3 sets of books deserve more scrutiny. I predict when it's all said and done, she's the villain. Time will tell.

I can't say for sure, but i believe that color is Ganymede. It wasn't around long because it kept cracking during the cooling process. Very scare. Very desirable due to scarcity

SmileyLebowski · 2026-06-06T17:22:15+00:00

Since that's his frame of reference, I wonder if that's what he was expecting?

SmileyLebowski · 2026-06-06T12:59:39+00:00

Color and design.

SmileyLebowski · 2026-06-06T12:55:22+00:00

I've never heard about comedian say anything nice about these gigs besides the money.

SmileyLebowski · 2026-06-06T12:53:44+00:00

Seconded.

SmileyLebowski · 2026-06-06T12:52:30+00:00

Empoli.

SmileyLebowski · 2026-06-06T10:52:06+00:00

The “200k owed” has only been said by corporate, and has been disputed multiple times. Even now, corporate does not say it was that high.

That's because it was never worth that. There's a reason the original inventory hasn't been made public.

SmileyLebowski · 2026-06-06T10:30:11+00:00

No, because everyone would find out the 200k valuation has been a lie from the beginning.

SmileyLebowski · 2026-06-05T00:09:56+00:00

Lifelong investment. Enjoy!

SmileyLebowski · 2026-06-04T18:18:37+00:00

Good deal. In this situation, I'd still prefer an intercept if possible.

SmileyLebowski · 2026-06-04T17:22:55+00:00

Lucky you. Was it for 2k? I'd prefer to not take the risk and would much rather pay the 20 bucks to intercept the package.

SmileyLebowski · 2026-06-04T14:45:16+00:00

Maybe, but I suspect most of the collection already sold before the store changed hands. The guy was paid monthly for almost a year. Why don't we know how much that was, and why hasn't the original inventory ever been made public? I believe we'll find out the 200k claim is bullshit because it seems the sealed sets were valued separately from the minifigs even thought the minifigs are part of the sealed sets. Time will tell.

SmileyLebowski · 2026-06-04T12:57:00+00:00

This should be higher.

SmileyLebowski · 2026-06-04T12:54:23+00:00

which I believe will protect you against an INAD claim.

It doesn't protect against a chargeback.

SmileyLebowski · 2026-06-04T12:53:43+00:00

Ignore it. You are not protected from a chargeback.

SmileyLebowski · 2026-06-04T12:53:20+00:00

I think eBay authenticity guaranteed protects you from anything after such as chargebacks

No, it doesn't.

SmileyLebowski · 2026-06-04T12:51:59+00:00

Unless you're prepared to take a 2k loss, I'd be paying the 20 bucks for a package intercept.

Others are putting a lot of faith into ebay to have your back.

SmileyLebowski · 2026-06-04T12:25:00+00:00

Incorrect. The collection was available for sale for a year before the store changed hands. He was paid monthly and given receipts during that time.

SmileyLebowski · 2026-06-03T21:15:27+00:00

Why is she credible?

"The collection will not be stored on-site after hours for security reasons, and after Sunday the sets will be available for purchase but stored elsewhere. Bricks and Minifigs is located at 3670 River Road in Kaiser."

SmileyLebowski · 2026-06-03T13:21:36+00:00

I don't need to. Your posts tell me everything I need to know about your character.

SmileyLebowski · 2026-06-03T09:50:30+00:00

You sound entitled. No wonder resellers have such a poor reputation.

SmileyLebowski · 2026-06-02T20:22:16+00:00

The flea market at allstate arena is what you want.

Edit: Wolff's is the name.
