    "Hello, you are (hopefully not) bidding on this or any replica Eddie Vedder guitar pick. There is a seller on ebay who is selling replica Eddie Vedder Picks as being "from his most recent solo tour" with tricky wording, and answering questions about the item as being authentic "from a roadie", and all it would take is a little research to find out who this seller is. Please do not buy this one and please do not buy the others unless you are aware that they are not from Eddie Vedders hand. These replicas are a different thickness, the edges are rough, and there is a slight variation in size of the printed letters and design from the originals. Warn your friends, a fan who buys this hoping for a real Eddie pick is going to be getting a replica. Any questions, feel free to ask. I have an authentic pick I obtained at an Eddie Vedder show for comparison. The photo is of the replica pick, I am not going to post a picture of the authentic, as to not assist in the bootlegging of these picks."

    :lol:
    Thanks EPOTTSIII!

    I saw someone trying to pawn 312 at the United Center off as front row - club - hard tickets for $275 a pair. But what got me was the actual 10C member selling two for Philadelphia 2 to non-club members for at current $500. They didn't know the seat location yet but I hope they get nailed at the box office especially since this means alot to many people who would have loved to have scored those, not to mention really rubs it to the folks who didn't even get Comcastix seats. Saw lots of Chicago tickets on there as well. These scabs are worse than scalpers, IMO. I was on there looking for the Flight to Mars posters but put in Pearl Jam to search and this totally disgusted me.

    I consider guitar picks like autographs ...

    If I dont get them myself, I'd never buy them off someone else.

    you said it!

    i have a pic Ed handed me himself and i wouldn't sell that shit..well ok...a million and I'll reluctantly part with it!...but a real fan wouldn't sell their shit to begin with so I'd be skeptical of any Ed pic for sale on eBay.!


    fucking leeches!!...always trying to suck,fuck & make a buck!!

    What I don't understand is his so-called "morality" by being kind enough to "alert" other buyers about the pic rip-off? I did a search and didn't find any that he was talking about.

    He added a note in red: "AGAIN, this listing is intended to warn potential buyers, I am not actually trying to get $1,000,000.00 for this pick!"

    I looked through his feedbacks.... :roll:

    He has sold some PJ-related stuff including pics (wallet) and made extra money such as taking out the drop down in the park LP/Poster out of the SDE and made 50 bucks on that. *groans*

    Must be one of my enemies' best friends on eBay.... maybe they had a silly argument over Snoopy. :P

    I'd also like to get a pick and sig myself, but I do have a signed picture of Eddie that my sister gave me as a surprise! Couldn't very well say thanks but no thanks!! Obviously it means a lot that she got it for me.
    So I'll just lie down and wait for the dream
