Hey guys, I have had this deal up for a while for the Wrigley mural and have gotten no pms of interest. I'm not complaining but was interested to hear from you guys why you think there has been no interest. I figured it was either because I am relatively new to the boards or because I need to offer something more. I was just curious and thanks for the help.

  • Why don't you sell those prints and buy one. Cash rules sometimes.

    That was a back up plan but I was optimistic in getting a straight up trade.

  • Sometimes it just takes time as well. I have a FS thread with a pretty nice price on a white backspacer and haven't received one pm about it. Just keep bumping or like previous post said, just sell then pay cash. Maybe people are saving for tour. Who knows?

    good luck

    It's very hard to find someone who's looking for what you have and has what you want. Not impossible but you'll probably have better luck offering cash.

    Secondary thought: most of what you're offering is relatively new. I'm not suggesting you do this because I think we've all been getting a little out of control in terms of our wants (me included :lol::lol: ) but to get something you REALLY want, you probably have to offer to part with something someone else REALLY REALLY REALLY wants which often equates to something from at least few years ago.

    And sometimes it just takes time.

    Good luck.

    All good advice.

    Another thought might be that the Mural has not settled into its 'secondary market value' yet.

    I think the interest in the mural benefited from the craziness in demand surrounding the Wrigley Ames Variant.

    'Flippers' (not that there is anything wrong with it or anything we can do about it) saw a potential opportunity with the mural but have not seen the same 'nuclear' reaction.

    If you really want it and cant risk not having it, I would buy it outright on the bay and then sell your other stuff.

    Peace of mind is sometimes worth the extra money.

    First off nice to see a fellow Illinois fan!!! :D

    But I think most people who are not keeping this poster to frame are waiting to see if this price is gonna sky rocket (like the Ames variant) as someone else said , or basically wait and seeing what the print value is gonna be around.

    Prob best to offer cash tho, cash is king when it comes to these boards.

    Main thing is be patient, I don't think this print will go nucleur in value, if u have to own one ASAP buy one on fleabay, if u can wait I'm sure these will go down slowly now that the Wrigley cluster Fuck is over! Look at all the other show prints, they were going crazy high the first couple weeks and now they're fairly reasonable! Except the cracker jack.

    But be patient, there's good people around here that will sell when the time is right, and there will be deals to be had!! Good luck!
    Cant buy what i want cause its free....
