I was not happy.
I one side is damage, wrinkles one side.
This shit had to happen with DC, I can't believe it.

Is the thing with warm iron really works???


I wanted to trade my DC, but I guess now I will put it in the frame.

Ouch! Sorry to hear! :(
I wonder when (and how) dc and gorge will arrive in Sweden..

Yes, i have ironed out roll bends and creases with a pretty good result

How do you do this? I have a couple of older prints that have roll bends. Who do I see to have them ironed out? Will that affect the print color? Please advise me as I could use the assistance. Thanks.

Demand is still far above supply ... these things still haven't come under $275 a pop on the bay ...

Given the relative values at the moment, I think you mean this Fairey zeppelin print:

Crazy prices for Obey prints at the moment.

Yea, but the average price has gone down slightly. Not one of these has sold over $300 since august.

For the record, I'm not complaining, just stating facts. I think the price will surely rise again once the market is less saturated with them.

Crazy? Understatement of the year. $900 for that print is just plain stupid.

Openly, I've never been into much of the OG stuff ... but if for some reason this came into my possession right now, I'd flip that fekker quicker the a fry cook at a burger joint ... and if I loved that print, I'd rebuy it a few months from now at a few hundy less. Is there really anything SO special about that print? Is the paint laced with crack?

we've all heard it before about Fairey ... but man ... I ... just ... don't ... get it.

well I do really want the DC but right now the frenzy around the zep print is too much to deal with......

hypothetically I would be crazy to do one for one at this point

Historically Shep prints go for more money about 6 months after their release than they do when the market is flooded. For example "a guy I know" sold a Mujer Fatal for $110 about 6 months ago. Now they are going anywhere from $300-$400. It's tough to get top dollar for anything when there are 10-12 of them for sale at the same time.

I agree that the print is overrated but i would be lying if I said that I was sad it was selling for 900 since I got one.....

but I also put this print in the same category as the PJ firehouse virgin promo.... there are only 100 to the public and the rest will overtime get lost because none collectors (record vip's and such) will not know what they have in their hands...... it just went from 0 to 900 overnight firehouse took ten years

undestood ... this one just has the feel of an initial rush though ... people need it now ... to many old rich folks who don't even collect posters remembering Jimmy Paige and Robert Plant in their prime with lots of disposable income that want this n-o-w ... big hub-bub with the release of the album ... etc ...

But in a few months, those big fish will be gone and this poster will be forgotten and it'll only be us poster nerds looking for this ...

I could be wrong ... I honestly don't care.

hey, if you got it for $30 or $50 or whatever it was ... congrats ... that's awesome.

Just don't think the kids college eduaction is going to be paid by selling this in 10 - 15 years ...

but, again, I am stoopid ... so, don't pay no mind to me.

true and those prices tripled after his London show, then mag cover and now he is about to have a LA show so price might jump again.....

a lot of people paying big bucks are Londoners and such cuz the USD sucks monkey balls right now

My 2-month-old will not go to college. I've already decided that. He'll go to a trade school and become master plumber or something that will make my attorney salary look laughable with maybe 1/5th the debt.

Regarding the Zep print, it is like the perfect storm for getting top dollar right now: the London show, the British rock band, the crappy dollar, etc. But still, there are 12 on ebay right now. The market is flooded. And I would bet some of the ones on there are the record exec's copies. If they're not, as I pointed out on EB, then 25% of the ones sold by OG are either for sale right now or have been sold on ebay.

I was looking for Emek Decemberists Amsterdam 07. I usually don't dig on posters if it's not a PJ, but that one is just amazing...I love it.

I lucked into this at the TRPS show here in SF a month or so ago ... didn't even think he'd have these but he had a few of his A/Ps for sale ... I could NOT pass it up ... it is stunning in person.

If you're near portland ... he'll be here http://thegoodfoot.com/amm4/ tomorrow night ...

Wish I could make it ... it's a HELL of a lineup (if anyone is going PM me ... I have some easy non EMEK stuff I wouldn't mind someone picking up ... no need ot wiat in line for 3 hours for me, should be grab and go)
