That's fucked up!!!

It is probably a group of people reselling it to themselves to drive up the market :nono:

One just sold for over $1,250 ! ! ! Still one more up for sale with 2 days left...and it's at $970. Holy smokes ! ! ! :crazy:

Uncle Snuffy

This poster is just going nuts. As far as I can tell, 7 of the 45 have sold on the auction site...with one still up for sale. That's ~ 18% of them that were released/sold to the public by Ames Bros. Who wants to bet that the one currently up is the last one we see for a while?

P.S. We have an "official" PJ20 Billboard Owners thread. Anyone want to start an "official "Ames Wrigley Harry Caray Variant owners thread?

dimitrispearljam

I am 99 percent sure that was bid up by the guy selling it(or his friends but either way) no sane person would spend that much on that poster. Not a legit price.

I thought that too. He/she could bump up the price potentially to themselves.

i have no doubts about that..

Will this be the most valuable, limited edition PJ poster ever?

Yup, the Cubs factor will drive it up and up and up...mark my words. I thought I was getting the best deal on earth and was the first to recognize this when I "stole" the one for $499. Well, apparently the a-hole selling it realized it too...she stalled and stalled until finally refunding my money two days ago and did not ship it. Now I think she's selling it through a friend on fleabay again and it's sitting at $610. People suck, but the poster kicks ass, get one for yourself and one to hold on to if you can, the ones available now will be it for a long time! It really is the sweetest poster in person, the gold just pops! Not sure if I'm a bigger PJ fan or Cubs fan, had to have it, plus we have EVERY poster for each show we've been to!

That's BS. I made an impulsive jump at it the first time I saw it and bought mine for $550.

I've been burnt by that in the past though. Although, when I jumped and paid $400 for the PJ20 Mark5 Eagle poster I think I did pretty good.

so guess i was right after all eh snuff?

That is some shit. Did you ask or know what number was going to be shipped to you? If so we can ask about it for the new listed item and see if they match.

i wish, the c never told me the number. i was so pissed! but at least i still got one, not AS GOOD of a price but looking better each day!

I say get it while u can. There were only 45 released to the public. They're being gobbled up by collectors at those prices. I say if u can score one under $800 you're getting a good deal.

Holy shit man.....thats a shitty deal! But I agree w you totally, those colors really make this poster stand out![/quote]

That is wrong! :? I can't believe someone would do that, did they give you a bogus reason for the refund?[/quote]

reported her to ebay because she didn't even follow the rules for the refund...just showed up on my paypal account for no apparent reason. so effed up dude

I would sell mine for $2k. Then buy one off Ebay netting a profit.

Although, my frame job just made mine 'worth' $1K.

hey man, where did you end up getting one if you don't mind saying? just curious...and you should join the official harry caray variant owner's fan club thread.

Cool. Can't wait to see it.

I layed it out that way too but it just seemed like way too much red & blue.

I ended up with a double mat, blue/gray (same color as smoke) over black with a black frame. The frame has a 'rope' look through it that pulled the look of the curtains and whip out of the print.

Maybe we should trade periodically to have different looks in our collection.

I am very curious to see pictures of these when you get them done, it's an awesome print with the coloring so if you all could, I'd love to see the finished product :corn:

That looks really good - congrats on scoring one. :thumbup:

Like countless others I had one in my cart and ended up in an endless loop trying to finish up the transaction. Someday I hope to own this!

I really like this one too. In my opinion it really pulls Pearl Jam outshine not flooding the eyes to reds and blues, but nicely compliments them.
