    I’m guessing $3-4k on the 96 Ireland. It went for over $3500 a couple years ago on sixties poster auction.

    Would love to but can’t afford it realistically. Have ordered the MM strat…

    $275 for that Hartford '13 seems insane, but hey... if someone buys it, it's not overpriced. 
  • Ames just got back to me.  Said they are trying to fix the problem and hope to have it resolved within 15 minutes.

    Can't get them to accept my home or work address in Wisconsin.  I have been looking for that Vikings poster for years,   nothing but errors from Ames.....
    again.
    Looks like address issues are fixed. Did you get it?

    People shouldn’t have their hopes up too much for this. Not that many PJ shows in October and Ames confirmed prices will be at or near market value 
    True, but what is market value honestly? Is Donkey Kong $1,375 like expresso beans says or $6,500 to $9,500 because those are the only two on eBay? Today will be the first indication of what is to come.
    $1,375 is a show edition price. Market price for signed and numbered by the artist is going to be quite a bit higher 
    Has anybody out there bought it for that price? 

    I picked mine up at MSG in 2010… Standard version - unsigned. It’s framed with a double matte in my office.

    If someone offered me that amount of money for it… I would be hard-pressed to pass up the offer. 

    Don’t get me wrong… I love the print. It’s probably one of my favorite posters that I have (have picked up a few over the years) But at that price… Sold.

    Wonder if Ames will adjust the prices on these if they don't sell after a few days.
