    I'm happy with that!

    I bought the LE version and I wanted to get the regular version at some point......it's a collector thing!

    Perfect timing now...I get a free poster!

    its a rip. complete rip.

    As I sit here and read these posts, I can't help but wonder how old some of you are?!?

    Get the fuck over it.

    Yeah, they are so terrible for offering consumers an additional insentive to buy this kick ass book...are you people serious??????

    Most of you are bitching about the print too, which just
    makes this even more adorable...most of you claim you don't even like the print, you're just bullshit that they're offering an added insentive....

    Waaaaaaaaaaahh, I don't like the 3 prints that came with mine...waaaaaaah

    Just go have yourselves a good cry and get over it, it's border line pathetic.

    thats bullshit...so those that bought it get screwed for buying it when it came out

    exactly...perhaps they should be sending a copy of the free print to everyone who had previously purchased the book...

    obviously the book sales aren't panning out like they thought they would now ames is trying to capitalize on fans' love of posters to hock a few more books that they have already paid for...

    just my take on the situation

    um..it's 'adorable'? your grasp of the english language is a lot like this poster. Limited. You certainly can't spell with it anyways. Or am i just being 'insen(si)tive'.

    What a bunch of babies you are!

    First, this new LE poster sucks monkey balls. It is terrible. What is remotely cool about a Pearl Jam vs. Ames Bros poster?

    Second, there must have been huge quantities of these books in PJ's and Ames Bros. inventory, so what are they to do? Either lower the price or sweeten the deal. They are just supposed to sit on these books until they have to throw them away? Okay, I guess what you really want is them for free.

    Yes! Free stuff. I'm a fan, so I deserve free stuff. Me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me.......

    There weren't lots of copies left lying around. This is a new edition of the book with a soft cover(which will probably last longer/be better for looking through..the binding on the originals isnt great). The initial two had hard covers, had i known that in the first place woulda just got the green one believe me.
    It's not about the book it's about the point. They knew poster fans are gonna have to buy this too. For possibly the third time. It's abuse plain and simple. Disgusted.

    It is not a new soft cover book. It is the same hard cover book. They are simply trying to move some inventory.

    I try not to partake in the complaining on here very much...

    But this blows. I bought BOTH versions of the book when they came out and now late comers are rewarded with a "limited edition" poster.

    Such is life. It's a good business move to move some books.

    But the poster sucks. Be happy it isn't taking up space in your house.
