Not only has this item not even been sent out/received yet, making it invalid, it's dicks like this that buy something just to flip, preventing genuine fans from buying it at fair price, as decided by the poster artist! A few of us missed out, and it's tools like this we should blame! Flippers = Scalpers = detested by Pearl Jam themselves & fans alike!

    And yes, I was at the Sydney 3 show and missed out on a poster. I would be happy if I missed out to genuine art fans of Emek or people who went to the show, but to miss out to people buying multiples just to see them on eBay the following week, that's what annoys me.

    Looking for the exact poster for face value (hahaha). Last resort after spending 2 weeks asking on here if anyone had a spare. They probably didn't get back to me as they know my stance on buying spares (hahaha).

    Sorry you missed out mate, they should have had a limit in all states. Pretty sure they had one in Adelaide. Hope you find one!

    I hear you!
    Got shut out of BK's sale as usual. Not even 10 mins. later they were up on FLEAbay for 3X the price. Worst part was a fellow 10c member who I've bought from before was flipping them.
    Gotta love free enterprise.

    Totes! They should boot 'em out, exactly as they do with scalpers!

    Well, EMEK may be working something out for me. It's the only PJ/EV poster I don't have from theshows I have seen, except Canberra EV where there was no poster made.

    At least there should be a chance for you to buy one through 10 club in the future.

    Good luck to you folks that were at the shows but shut out when that happens.

    And I reported the sale to eBay, as the seller doesn't have the goods they are selling yet.

    Ebay won't do anything, clearly stated in the auction that the item was pre-ordered ... so, the seller gets away with it with that language.
