Ok so I must have no life at all but i just read through every single post that is in this thread. This is my views on this thread.
1.I approve of what you are doing
1.a Reason behind me approving it is this. From the very first thread on to your very last thread all you have been doing is saying look I put up some rare items of Pearl Jam stuff on ebay, I have a price I am set with selling them for. If however, you would like to make me an offer that fits your budget then submit me and offer to see if we could come to an agreement.(I don't view this as pitting one fan against another, I view it as being a fan, and trying to help another fan out if they really want said item but can't afford it for what your asking for.)
2. I don't approve of everyone bashing you for using ebay. Ok we get it the band hates ebay, they hate ticketmaster, and they hate people trying to turn stuff rip people off. I understand all that however selling something or buying something like this from Ebay is also like using a middle man for security reasons. Not saying this is whats happening but say he did come here and just posted hey I am selling this this and this, pm me and lets make this deal, this can lead to many problems, Identity theft for example if your making the deal and pass along sensitive information. In working through ebay, the buyer typically has a peace of mind knowing there information is safe and the transaction will go through. The seller has the peace of mind knowing that if they agree to sell this item to someone the transaction will more often than not go through and don't have to worry about someone backing out last minute.
3. I can see where some people can say you shouldn't post your sales or link to your ebay auction as this is a message board typically to talk about music or live shows or other pearl jam stuff. Their views on this can be more of a profit thread instead of an I have these items that i am going to be parting with type of thread.
4. I for one can not afford to buy anything you have listed and don't have the money to make a reasonable offer. What is being done here is a person has some items that holds value for them, they put a price on that value and are letting go of it. It happens everyday. Between selling a car that's been in your family for 40 years to selling a business that has been in your family since it opened. Times change and sometimes you need to make sacrifices of letting go things you do truly love.
5. From what I saw these items are from the 90's, this being said I would assume that when he first got these items, he had no intention of letting go of them. 14 years later he regrettably has to.
6. Final point that I want to make is I am 22 years old, I am still young in the eyes of most people. I just started liking the band back in 2003. I would die to have been able to hold a peace of Pearl Jam history from back when they were jumping into crowds, getting hit with mics on the head, and causing problems. I get the mature pearl jam who puts on amazing shows, but I will always feel like I missed out on some amazing things that this band has done. You see everywhere on this board about posts for Philly boots, (I was at philly 3 and cant wait for the boot) I would also buy an item from this show if someone was selling something 15 years from now from that show. The reason i would love to buy it is because that show was one of the most memorable nights of my life. To me that item would be a constant reminder of that night.
Good luck with your auctions, I don't prowl ebay everyday looking for rare items, and if i had the money to do so I would most likely purchase one of these items just to have a peace of the band that I never got to experience personally. With your FYI it allowed me to see some of these things that I never saw before.
Rant over- How was that for a person who never posts on the board

Young man- thank you for taking the time to read through the whole thing and getting the point! WoW that must have taken you 2hrs or so..... but I am very glad that you broke it all down and viewed everyone's perspectives and came out with a conclusion..... I'm glad that you agree with me, but let me say that if you didn't, I would have still been happy because you had at least taken the time to break it all down...and then made an informed decision....whether in my favor or against..... It shows that you have a bright mind.... For that I stand and give you an applause........
Because I am a good guy and that just made me feel super good,,,,,,,,,,, I really thought no one would ever simply do what you did and just break it down like that,,,,,,,,,,,, I'm going to send you a little something to start /keep your PJ career going in the right direction...... This is how true fans treat each other .....with respect! .........I have always said that the best part of going to shows is meeting interesting people and sharing the many stories of the road.........You have much to learn, but the good thing is that you already have a focused mind...... GOOD FOR YOU!!!! pm me your address and I'm going to send you a little something --- Nothing crazy, but something any true fan would value!!!!
Lastly I dedicate this song to you, because you spoke out and you weren't shy about it- a few people have pm'ed me similar messages, but most were to hesitant to actually post it on the board (i understand there reasons)- but you kind of stood up and weren't shy about it!! That's cool!

Fucking weird! That's how it is!
This dude bumps his thread by repeatedly answering the same questions every single time they are asked with lengthy, bullshit answers that are nearly always filled with misspelled words (that was what someone was giving him shit about) he then goes on to say he is not bumping his thread of ridiculously overpriced how-the-fuck-did-you-even-get-this-shit shit and then wishes us all the best...two words...

That was a pretty funny post--- I do apologize for the occasional misspelled word here and there --- Sorry, but I try to answer a post as quickly as possible, that way the person who posted the comment can get an answer.
Look for the millionth and one time ... I have already acknowledged that I didn't think anyone from the board would be buying any of my items..... I am not answering people because I am trying to get a bump.... if that was the case I would simply bump bump my listing.... with out taking the time to explain and address each comment. ...
Most of the time I am repeating my answers because people are still making the same comments... If you simply take the time to go through the post you will see that I already addressed everything you just said.... Except for the misspelled comment..... Ultimately I want to be able to post something in the future and not have to deal with the simple minds.....and naturally bump my post like everyone else around here does! How could anyone think that if they post a new thread, every member is going to see it? That's why people bump..to get a little extra exposure..... In the case of this thread ....it has already been super exposed....I wouldn't need to address people's questions anymore if I was simply looking for a bump......

Exactly! I've said the same thing to him. He's such a fake.
ps. i love how he informed you on collectibles when you are "the king," that was one of the high points of the thread in my opinion. Hope all is well with you.-one thing to remember, always have a good time, all the time0 -
I told you guys he's Stone Gossard...that's why they won't lock this thread

Time to answer my Fan Mail
PJtradeking - Your quote of what I said - is a revelation to what has taken place through this thread..... What I mean by that is that it became (through this process) clear to me that no one here would probably be buying the items, why? Because of negative comments- and the many hits the thread had received. I continued to answer people because it became more about my right to "posting for sale or links to ebay" on the board. That's what this whole argument has been about! Not sure if you got the memo...I mean it has taken a few turns here and there..... but yeah its pretty much been about that.... Otherwise I could simply have bumped my thread like everyone else and then let it die away after 3 days or so.....
I have admitted time and time again.... and I will admit it now... Yes I am trying to sell my items and yes I posted a thread here to get more exposure in hopes that someone would buy something..... but it was simply and FYI for those who are interested in signed stuff..... I am not expecting all my stuff to be purchase from someone on the board, but who knows...maybe someone here will buy something....Don't know and it really doesn't matter (i would prefer someone from here), but ultimately if someone buys such items you would think that they are big fans.............I am not flipping a regular official item here...... IF you owned a reenk roink and was thinking about letting it go...... would you simply come on the board and just give it away? Because PJ gave those away so it wouldn't be fare for you to make anything on that..... Or would you be like so many of the hardcore members on here who say one thing on the board and then go and sell there stuff on ebay??? At least you know who I am and what I am about!
Now to address thebetterman....... Now I never directly informed anyone. I always addressed things generally speaking.... unless someone asked a specific thing of me.... Then I would directly inform....... I didn't know Pjtradeking was the king of collectibles around here..... but now I know and next time I am going to sell a collectible I'll be sure to check in with pjtradeking.... I hope I didn't offend you "thebetterman" I wasn't trying to inform your "American Idol" ...........nothing against you pjtraderking....i just found it funny that thebetterman was all over your sack! LOL jk
I hope I have addressed your concerns.....and if I didn't or if I did I would like a reply to this post......
thank you,
