    BTW....I'm not the guy who is being reffered to in this post...I don't have 10 of any poster lol, but I did have 4 Virgin Promos at one time that I was gonna frame as a 4 of a kind hand....now I only have 3 to sell.

    I am pretty well versed in collecting as well....Dont you think it is strange for some to have 10 of some of those old prints? I mean, a couple maybe, but 10?? This is what would red flag it for me..hmmmm

    It's possible. During the '05 tour, I've seen a few fan's come out from the arena with dozens of prints running to their cars to drop off. Many in groups. Same thing happen during the '06 tour & if you've read a few '10 show review's, many said they saw a few run out with stacks of poster's. Few merchandise tables don't give a shit & you can go ape shit & buy as much as you can. For trades, for selling etc.. Many year's back, wasn't somebody caught for selling prints on eBay that used to work @ the Pearl Jam merchandise tables? Guy had tons of prints of each show.

    Guess I should have been more specific, D. I was referring to pre 2003 posters b4 things got out of hand. I would find it hard for anyone to have 10 of anything from those as they were a bit more strict as to the number one could purchase..should have been more clear..Although, nothing surprises me anymore...Now, with the advent of fakes, it is just so frigging hard to tell.

    My friend was going to see Eddie last night. Since he was in Vegas, I gave him 5 Grand to gamble with. I told him I wanted it all to go on Black. Bastard! PhillyCrownOfThorns-11-2-12

    Here's a real fake poster - from some cat trying to make you think its a real poster from 1996:

    http://cgi.ebay.com/1997-PEARL-JAM-CONC ... 2ea8bc7e10

    Maybe next time get the year right and make sure you use a photo with the right drummer in it.
