The most honest advertisement on
Carnival Junction to date; so honest it is pretty damn hilarious:
Tribe: Mystique (Male, 30 waist, Non-Veg meal)
Don't want to waste anybody's time, so:
* Selling for a profit...non-negotiable
Original Price: TT$ 2,400
Selling Price : TT$ 3,000
*I've only paid the downpayment of TT$900 which means you'll pay me TT$1,500 (Orig downpayment + Profit) and then the balance (TT$ 1,500) will be paid by you on collection day at Tribe
* Will write up a letter to present to Tribe so you can collect the costume, but will not be transferring costume to your name (I'm keeping the TLC)
Price: $ 3,000
Want to bet he gets it sold AND keeps his TLC too? P
You know sometimes you collect your costume and it is just not what you expected; the headpiece is too big, the colour does nothing for you, you long for some other costume instead... it all hits us I guess, costume insanity. That nagging feeling that maybe you made the wrong choice, the urge to switch sections, the absolute disgust at looking at the costume you were so in love with months ago. Maybe the costume is too skimpy or not skimpy enough and before all you could do was live with your choice and enjoy the mas nevertheless. However, that was before Carnival Junction,m the site Triniqueen labeled "the devil". There is the costume you want tempting you, FOR SALE.
The only problem is offloading your costume, the one you don't want anymore, and as Carnival quickly approaches desperation sets in. You need to get rid of it NOW. Well that is the situation that leads to this post , normally I do not advertise costumes for sale but this is a special case as I empathise with the young ladies in question:

TRIBE is now
closed for registration; no word on if Bat eventually sold out or not, but that is it for TRIBE. If you are still looking for costumes, check
Carnival Junction, LOTS of TRIBE costumes for sale or barter. Guess the cost of the costumes finally resonated with some people, either that or they cannot get flights to Trinidad for a reasonable price; I am hearing from Trinidad to Barbados it is now $800.00US for Carnival week! Madness I tell you.
Island People still has a few costumes available in the following sections: Nubians, Mirage and Jewel of the Nile, that's right the section that sold out first! Apparently people are selling off costumes so Jewel of the Nile is back on the market. I was also informed that there might be a few costumes available for sale in other sections as well, however, you need to go to the mas camp, get measured and see if they have your size in costumes for sale.
Now doesn't that just give hope to all those still placing ad's on Carnival Junction for "costume wanted"?
