Nice to see this in person.

thanks slh and 10 C !

now if we could get the artillery flying,....

Hey, maybe 10C could sell them for #7? Seems their servers can handle the traffic.

Hey everyone, so it's obviously taken a lot longer to get my site issues figured out...the web hoster I was using is proving to be problematic, as many of you are aware, and their cutstomer service is pretty bad, so we are looking for other options that will work better.

To give you an idea of traffic and server needs...the most recent poster sales here, hundreds of posters sold out within matters of seconds. It's quite unbelievable how quickly they go...they aren't even up for a minute, or half a minute for that matter.

With that in mind, and due to the poor repsonse from the company i had been dealing with, a new plan must be forged.

As always i will let you all know when it's back on...as i have said before, i want to get this moving and underway more then anyone...i apologize for the drawn out delays and failed sales, but we're getting it all fixed as quickly as possible.

thanks



this can be found on the 07 poster thread

people were openly admitting they were trying to get one of these for trade bait later on down the road

im sure after the final sales have happened, youll be able to acquire one of these thru some sort of trade.

Yeah, but apparently "everybody wants them" to trade or sell on the bay. Seems like 90% of the people on the HI poster thread had the following post:

"Got mine! Who wants to trade?"

I found it exceedingly irritating that the hundred or so who got through mostly only wanted the poster as currency to get something else. My faith that I may finally own that all elusive DC is waning.

Yeah, Im dying to see this in person. I didn't pay too much attention to this poster but its a class poster and Im glad I bought one.

Should be here any day now!!

Got shut out of the Hawaii Ames like alot of people. Saw the "buy" option 3 times and nothing. Not happy!!

Since DC'06 is the last poster on sale does that include the Euro 2007 posters??

Just thought this was kind of funny. There is a person on ebay selling the ames gorge and the hawaii poster but he says he can't ship until the 31st because he is on vacation. He must be a first time buyer/flipper from 10 club because he is in Canada and I doubt there is any chance he will get them by then. He or she has nothing else for sale at the moment. Whoever buys it may have to wait for a while. My posters usually take a month to arrive.

What's even funnier is he got his auctions removed for policy violations. SOmeone must have said something. Serves him right. Although i emailed him to call him on it but he was smart enough to say they "were from his personal collection not 10 c"

The ebay police needs to chill the @*&$ out..........

is it wrong for them to sell the posters, yes

do we need more snitches, no

is the pit for reporting every stupid thing on ebay, no

sorry just how i feel.

I have had an ebay listing removed because this one douche got upset that I was selling a poster he didn't have. He accused me of flipping, so I told him to go fuck himself...they removed my listing because they said I stole the Image...So I relisted it and sold it for more. I put it up on ebay because I had 2 of the same poster and some people got shut out from the 10c. I am not big on trades so I wanted some extra dough for it.....I do not condone flipping especially when you don't even have the poster...I hate seeing people pawn off Ames s/n way before they get them....I don't understand how they get away with it...

On a totally different subject, I recently acquired a 06 ccfa north american tour print and i went with 1.5 in flattened black frame and 2.5 in black mat. I haven't got it back yet, but based on that print you think too much black?

In one post you justify flipping and then you say you don't condone it... then you judge others doing the same thing as you... nice!

If I was going to go with a single mat, black would have been one of my first choices too.

You do realize that these 2 successive statements are diametrically opposed to one another.
Basically you said, "hey I sold a poster for a lot of money, but I don't think people should scalp their posters."
So its OK for you to profit off of Ames Bros or Klausen's work in your line of thinking, but not other people.
Did I misread this?

You never sold a poster for more than 25 bucks...I was not flipping it, I did not buy from the 10c during the sale and then advertise it on Ebay for auction...don't be a fool, I am saying that I do not agree with selling something you don't have or simply buying from the 10c and then listing it on Ebay seconds after getting your confirmation email...You and MasterFramer should go hug each other....What I did was not "flipping"...it was called reselling about 6 months after I attended the show and was able to buy 2 posters.....and don't give me that you would never buy two posters from a show because we aren't allowed...I have seen vending workers at the shows walking out with 5 posters at a time...don't be so corny
