Vant is pretty well versed in how all of this works.

Having dealt with him directly and indirectly. The tips or lectures are sort of wasted.

The man is just looking for someone interested in selling a poster. even if that interest is minimal.

Are you out there? He's willing and able (and knows full well how to) to work with a seller! 

Also, has anyone ever seen ANY show about buying and selling....you start low....and high.....and work towards the middle.......right?

Where are you guys shopping for these $400 98s?  I need to shop where you guys shop. 

If the point is just to win some argument, please stop.  Seriously.

No argument here.  This a forum where posters are bought and sold everyday. You posted misleading information multiple times that most 98 posters do not sell for more than $400.  It’s a little unrealistic for you to expect that there wouldn’t be a discussion about current values contrary to what you posted.  With that being said... I really hope you find your ISO and that you get it for $400.  

Aaaaand there it is. It was winning the argument.  Good for you.

And who was misled???? Lol

You literally said... if I’m way off base let me know.  You were off base so we let know.  Don’t kill the messenger.  

vant0037

But why??? Do you have one  to sell? If not, why do you care, if it’s not to win some dumb arcane debate about the appropriate price for a poster you’re not selling?

Lol.  It’s not a debate. You asked for input and then got mad that people said your offer was off base.  I didn’t post until you solicited advice. 

Just pretend we all said $400 is a generous offer and we can all forget this ever happened.

Read my original post and point out where I turned this into a debate about a price.  Sheesh man. Give it up if you don’t have one.

vant0037

With that...does anyone who has posted actually have one to sell?

on2legs

🤦🏻‍♂️

My sentiments exactly bro

It's a discussion forum. People gonna discuss. Particularly when you bump it to the top every day for a week. You could try craigslist or something if you just want to put up an ad with no discussion.

Not to someone who thinks 98s usually sell for $400 or less 😂

So you have one to sell but only to people who share your views on the prices of a class of Pearl Jam posters?  Cool.

I do hope you get one though. It would be a good thing if they're really obtainable at that price

And this Vant is why I don’t even bother with LDs.

A few years ago, someone was on here being all emotional about getting a Emek Portland poster for their significant other for a birthday gift, or something. I did this person a solid and sold them a SE that I had. The price was exceptionally reasonable, let’s say it was under $150 shipped when they were going for much more. Trying helping the person out. Not more than a month later, that joker was on here trying to peddle it at an extremely inflate price in an attempt to upgrade it to an AP. Stating that the significant other really wanted one of those not the SE. and after that I was done. 

vant0037

Thanks Jer. That’s awful.  I’m sorry that happened to you.  Good on you for trying to do a cool thing.

I get it.  People have different opinions and merch is valuable.  All I wanted was a seller to deal with directly.  I should’ve guessed and am disappointed that I let myself get into an - gah! - internet argument on this board.  That’s so 2011!

It’s all good. I’m not upset or offended and I wish all well. Just resigned now that this thread will decidedly NOT result in finding a seller to negotiate with!  Lol

Take care all.  If someone does want to discuss a sale, let me know.

Something very similar happened to me ages ago. Unless you know someone personally, sell for nothing less than full market value. So often you see sob stories with no way of knowing if that person eventually flips it. It definitely happens.

On topic, if Hartford is one of these low end 98s I'm hearing about, I'm your man. But sell your Minneapolis to Vant.
