    That's what I first thought also
  • make sure you ask for detailed pictures. some of those posters have some serious creases and roll bends based on what i can see in those photos.

    And since he knows what they are worth ....I trust he will be selling them for what Frank sold them for! ;)

    don't think so ... unless the signatures were removed somehow .... Frank signed them in the middle of the print.

    I heard of a few people that requested and got posters without autographs.

    Further, if these are from Frank Black's website, I think that kinda sucks. I know a few of us who really wanted some of those posters for display purposes and tried real hard to get them, only for it to come about that people who were lucky enough to snag a bunch are reselling them here on the fan boards for what I'm sure will be around Eb averages (turning about a 2000% profit or more in the process) . I know it's a secondary market, he's well within his right, you would do it too blah, blah, blah,. I still just think it sucks.

    well, then it's a good bet ... I got 2, signed in the middle of the print.

    this will have a high ROI, these prints were $8 - 12 each from Frank's site. :shock:

    OP, be a pal, donate a small % of your profit to CCFA or Surfrider foundation or the like.

    Forgot that he signed them all, thanks for the clarification.

    if you need more pics...pm me.

    i love how people assume things and say how much of a *** i am for selling the posters.

    the point i was making about saying "i know what they are worth" is that i didn't want people PM'ing me and saying $10 ...if no one wants them on the board i will sell them on eBay.. just thought i'd give the "true" fans the option first.

    can we get a confirmation either way as to whether these were purchased from Frank Black recently?

    It's really a shame if these were from Black Francis (much cooler name than Frank Black btw). Oh well, they're yours to do whatever you want with.

    AGREED

    not making any assumptions but if that is the case then this is really uncool

    im still totally bummed about missing out on those posters - by about 2 minutes... just seems like a huge coincidence that its all the posters frank had available and they turn up here within the same time frame it wouldve taken to mail them from frank to the buyer and theyre in rough shape like those from frank... but stranger things have been known to happen

    and i guess thats the way of the world...

    how is it any different than purchasing an ITW vinyl on here for $20 and then re-selling it for $200 on ebay ??
