Kia Ora people, I'm trying to save one of our meeting houses here in New Zealand that has been up for sale for the last 2 years. Myself and friends stopping the sale when they went up for sale. However, they are still forsale and it's time that they finally come home to rest. They are in storage in auckland somewhere, apparently locked away in shipping containers. I've tried every avenue of trying to get them back, however our iwi's seem to have no ploy to get them back. No money I gather. I've been looking into Bitcoins, and thought just maybe I can get enough bitcoins to offer to the sellers as an agreement to exchange for the Taonga. Anyway, if you would like to email me, meet up to discuss options I am located in Wellington, New Zealand. Thanks anyway. Fingers crossed.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Let me introduce myself. My name is Wikohika and I am located in New Zealand. I have been trying to save some of our Maori artifacts/carvings that have been put up for sale by the owners. The sellers have wanted $6-12 million dollars for the carvings. I have tried all avenues of trying to find a way of bringing our Taonga(artifacts) home to where they can rest in peace.I dont have that sort of money lying around. I dont know if this will work or not, but I thought that I may be able to buy them back with bitcoins. Maybe, maybe not? Have to try all the possibilities. Anyway Ill include links to the carvings for sale etc. If you have any spare bitcoins that you wish to donate to my cause I would love that.

My bitcoin wallet is as follows:14nhCKoPSjW2zGLTZtb2voyWqzwh54aUH1

Website links about the carvings:
