Costumes from the recently canceled police drama were sold at the show's production office in Mapunapuna. About a dozen people were there within the first few minutes, scooping up an assortment of dress shirts, pants, suits, T-shirts, dresses, blouses and shoes — all at near giveaway prices ranging from $3 tank tops to $30 jackets.

Staff and crew had first pick at a pre-sale on Tuesday.

"I heard about it on TV this morning, so I came over," said Randy Furushima, 54, of nearby Moanalua Gardens. "I'm looking for aloha shirts, but all the good ones are gone."

Furushima said he watched the show regularly and is sad to see it go.

Appropriate for the show's emphasis on local authenticity, most of the costumes accumulated by costume supervisor Kathe James were simple, everyday items.

And if Michael Biehn's trademark polo shirts and slacks, or Sharif Atkins' body-hugging long-sleeve shirts, or Eric Balfour's trademark surfer shirts and corduroy pants, or Ivan Sergei's V-neck T-shirts and jeans looked like they came from the mall, they probably did.

"We shopped all over town," James said. "And we went from one end of Ala Moana to the other, from Macy's to Sears."

Still, yesterday's offerings did include a few unusual pieces, including HazMat suits, rubber waders, "Community Hospital" scrubs, and a couple of medical jackets emblazoned with "Katherine Sakata, Medical Examiner."

Aside from a few logo hats and T-shirts, the only items that bore a conspicuous link to the show were several bright orange "Missing: Heather Stevenson" T-shirts that were used in one of the episodes.

Understandably, the only costumes that weren't up for sale were the Metro Police Department uniforms.

Nu'uanu resident Pat Morton, whose sister Linda Wojcieski worked as a driver on the show, found good deals up and down the racks, from sarongs to fake jade bracelets. She also bought some shell lei for her daughter, who has a hula studio in Las Vegas.

Stephanie Sherwood, 38, of Wai'alae Nui, heard about the sale on radio while she was at work across the street at American Savings.

In one quick coffee break, she found a couple of tank tops and skirts that fit.

"And they're limited-wear," she said, brightly.

Sherwood said she had seen "a couple" of episodes of the show. That was probably a couple more than 76-year-old Dorothy Narvaez and 69-year-old Jo Peralto, both of Wahiawa, who said they could have, maybe, might have seen part of one. Or not.

Peralto had hoped to find a nice pair of shoes but, as she said, "I wear size 5 and they're all size 6 and above."

"I guess I can't be an actress," she said.

Malcolm Truitt, who served as Atkins' double, hadn't heard about the pre-sale the day before and found himself competing with other shoppers for clothes he himself wore on the show.

The 38-year-old Waikiki resident said he'll send some feelers to Los Angeles to try and fill up his suddenly empty schedule.

As of mid-morning yesterday, 6-foot-3, 240 pound Isaac Hamer had zero competition in the room for the few big-and-tall items left behind by Peter Navy Tuiasosopo, who played the burly Officer Kaleo.

Hamer, 22, of Kailua, said he watched the show for a few weeks, until it's ABC rival "Lost" debuted in the same time slot.

"So I guess I'm one of those guys who helped kill the show," he said. "Sorry."
