Posters 06 World Tour

Qball

You know being in this hobby for years now I dont even think it's bad to buy an extra to sell. Why: because someone else is going to do it. No matter how wrong it is, ebay will always be there for people to take advantage of. I love hooking people up for face value but if I can sell one on ebay to make up some costs I will. I buy posters to trade to. I would never go to a show to get 1 (although if I did I wouldnt complain). I bought a few boston posters because I knew I would want some west coast posters. So it was like paying $25 for the west coast ones to!

how is vegas?

i'd ask about the other 2 but i assume they suck in person as well

Bathgate66

the vegas is extremely suite- looks 3d in some spots- unless thats the ole' macular degeneration kicking in again !:eek: the fingernails are creepy looking- and his shit eating grin is catchy,...no but seriuously it looks great,.. and also the typewriter-- is really awesome .!

the grenade girl isnt totally puke, but there are dozens of tiny little white spots all throughout her face- i am guessing this is not an isolated incident i have heard of areas of black or dark having white spots shine thru- ( like on Klausens DC 06 alltho i have yet to see this baby in person )

the green headless guy aint so bad either, i like the smaller sizes ( this one and LV )

only 2 or 3 more and i'm all caught up...
until europe and Aus/NZ.


stay tuned

if you could finance a tour of the US watching Pearl Jam every night by selling posters would you do it?

I think it's great when the little people hook up the other little people

No, I wouldn't do this. I have a pet cocker spaniel that from time to time comes into our house with a tick on her. I remove it right away. Her blood is her blood, not the tick's. She loves to run through the bushes but that doesn't mean that she should lose blood over it. This is how I view the ninersfan guys. They are takers. People enjoy the Pearl Jam posters and the ninersfans take from them. Their argument is that they provide people from all over an opportunity to buy a poster from a show that they weren't able to attend. Well, that sounds cool and everything, but I'd bet that most of the buyers are people that went to the show and weren't able to score a print.

I would love a Hartford '98. I had every opportunity to buy 15 DC posters when I was at the show. I could have flipped a portion of those and I'd have my Hartford right now. If you check my EB page you'll see that I don't have one. Everyone has reasons for the things that they do and I am in no way saying that I'm better than anyone else for not flipping posters. I just don't do it, that's all. The casual fan selling and the ninersfan selling are two completely different things. I don't have a problem with somebody selling an extra for a little extra. It's the fleecing that bothers me..."How much can I get." vs. "Lets be fair." I don't agree with the buying just to sell. I just don't think that putting a $$ value on everything is a good thing for the hobby. As a collector you have to do what you feel comfortable with to help your collection grow.

It is great when the little people hook up little people. That is the very cool side of this hobby.

but thanks for stopping here at the front to say hello to bostonlou

the line is so long it has come full circle.

I'm slowly trying to get up to 7000 posts. you have to start somewhere.

Thought Adeline would like to spread some of the gorge suiteness to an poster newbie.

The view is mighty fine from upfront

I did this too with some of the shows I went to. I set up a trade before the tour began and I traded east coast for west coast. When my shows were over I sent the posters on their way. It was a good arrangement and it has been fun watching the shows play out to see what I might get in return.

Yeah you know I did this to but people backed out. I was suppose to get a LA klausen but looks like the guy is backing out. If anyone needs any leg 1 poster for a Klausen LA pm me!

Yep, everybody wants to be on top. I guess the LA Klausen was just too good for you. That is just really cool.

P-Town-P-Jam-Fan

This guy usamamasan1 might have a few. He seems to be buying and re-selling anything he can get his hands on. I've seen him post numerous times before, so I know he is an active board member. Just not too smart to use the same board nickname as your ebay name when you buy and sell that many posters..If you look on ebay for the portland poster, you will see that he has already bought 1, and has the high bid on all 4 or 5 that are for sale right now. Then click on his user name and look at his transactions...nothing but turning posters..
