I’m thinking I’m the only only one who really just doesn’t like the Rome poster.
I don't care for it either but tons of people want it....so I want it
As incredibly detailed as Emek's work always is.... The large central inclusion of skeletons on his Roma poster rendered me uninterested, as I don't ever equate Pearl Jam's music with skeletons and/or skulls. To each their own.
Am I the only one here waiting for another unknown gold?
No. Screw him. It’ll just the thread closed. He’s deemed untouchable by the mods for some reason. Even after being caught immediately flipping posters.
You say "caught" like he broke a rule. 10club could just as easily say, "Not For Hanging on White Walls" on the sale pages. Damn all these white-wallers buying up all the posters! Once the posters are sold, what happens with the poster is 100% out of their hands. Here's a question.... the posters are all sold as "As-Is. No Refunds. No Exchanges." How do you sell something "as-is" and offer no refunds or exchanges, but at the same time pretend to have a say over what the buyer can do with the poster after the posters are sold?
Dude. He had a sob story and had members here feeling bad for him. Some people almost sent him posters out of the goodness of their hearts only so he could turn around and flip them. I’m sorry but that crossed a line for me. He’s here actively knocking and complaining about flippers then does that? You might say he didn’t break a “rule” but to me he broke a moral rule. And then after he got caught he ran to the mods whining and begging them to close the very thread that he accidentally got caught in.
I've got no patience for his sob story either... I'm not saying that the dude isn't a royal asshat, I'm just saying that I see no reason for 10club to expect to have any say whatsoever with what happens to the posters after they sell them. Especially when they know full well the frenzy over them that they are intentionally creating. Like on2legs said, if they wanted a poster enforcement policy, they would have one.

I got you. I guess it just bothers me more that they seem to be defending him. But whatever.

No one knows if anything was said to him through PM. I'm thinking there was. But because people were giving him shit (maybe rightfully so), the threads got closed. I get it - but there's probably a lot behind the scenes we aren't aware of.
He hasn't posted here in a while has he?

Same here. Though it would be a nice gesture if Santos could release the Berlin to help give a “consolation prize” to people who missed out yesterday
HA ... I bet 75% of the Roma winners also get a Berlin anyway.
the Rome was definitely a curve ball.
IMO, if there is/are posters that are particularly established as highly coveted like this Rome one, Berlin, Thomas Train, etc... I think some sort of lottery/random selection system would be best and fair. This is coming from someone who probably does a bit better than average when it comes to online sales.

I saw a post in the "Tomorrow's the 10th" thread this week.

He's probably flagging everything and that's why threads are closed. I can tell that I have not sent him a PM. Usually when someone is caught for something that is perceived as being wrong they try to lay low. I don't care if he sold posters he bought here, but don't try to fool us. Like I said I sympathized up to the time he was caught.

I must have missed the thread where he was caught flipping - or any follow up since then....can't say that I miss the inane questions though!

Yeah...they were a little *too* obvious at times. Either way I'm glad he got called out. One less sketchy person to buy/trade with.
