Can someone help me out with the rules here?

I'm not flipping anything. But I need to get to Bridge School. I've got several posters from shows I attended, that I was going to frame and hang and I'm kinda over the idea of that now. I don't by any means consider this flipping posters....but what is the official word? I'd like to sell them, maybe as a package, there are about ten of them, purchased over the last five years or so. Once I figure out if it's an okay thing to do then I can give more specifics. Anyone wanna clear up the rules for me? Or officially define "flipping" please?

Thanks

the official word is this: if you put anything on Ebay without a reserve or minimum bid and let anyone know about it here on the board by creating a thread on the PORCH and you are fool-hearted enough to post a link to your Ebay auction (thus letting the market determine its true value) you will be called a flipper by various board members as well as the admin of the very site you pay money to be a part of...even though the term's definition DOES NOTmatch what you are doing......you will then be suspended from the forum for a month for "stirring up spit"

Just put yer shit on Ebay and don't tell anyone about it here....you will still sell them for fair market value...otherwise, you may post your posters for sale in GTF on the forum and simply name your price...for now, that is not a capital crime


Now, if you would read the very first post on this very topic posted by KAT, you would see this at the bottom of it...

P.S. Flipping is buying items (from Ten Club or merch booth, etc.) with the intent to resell for a profit. Don't do it. Someone outside of the U.S. asked for the definition.

Now remember, if you acquire a sealed copy of the Benny Vinyls for $400 and do the aforementioned on Ebay and you happen to sell them for $650, you will be called a flipper

Thanks snoopy.

I like that diligent folks like you make this easier for people like me whose eyes hurt from staring at the pc all damn day at work so I don't exactly make it to the very bottom of official posts

I got clearance from Kat so I'm not worried about a suspension but now I see I made a mistake by posting it on the Porch instead of GTF. I'm sure it will be moved soon.

I'm selling 14 posters to help fund my Bridge School trip. Any leftovers will be taken with me and donated for the raffles. But I'm hoping to sell at least half of them so I can make it there..

If you cant afford the show dont go. Stop buying merchandize and flipping it for a profit to support your concert habit. If your intent is to make a profit buy selling concert merch you should be removed from this club bc you obviously sell posters or other merch that is not for resale on this web page.

just curious if anyone else knows about this or has anything like it, or can elaborate what they know or would guess.

I recently went thru some boxes of older PJ memorabilia and found a handwritten check from the ten club from 1995, signed by a C.Bitondo (sp?) for a refund of the difference of what I ordered and what they actually sent me. the TEN CLUB was c/o of VWC Management and I had with it ( I assumed it came with it) a $2 from 1976.
