I am of the opinion(and so far am 100% right) that if you wait....watch...or get to know the right people or are in the right place at the right time, you can get anything you want for the price you want....Sometimes, really cool people will give them to you cause they know what it means for you to have them.....Now, if I can just get them all up on the walls...Have taken a loooong break...I think it is time to put a few more up on the walls to display in all their glory!!

Hey King- long time!

"Value" is relative, isn't it? I have the ugliest pj poster ever made proudly displayed in my recroom. It was my first show so to me, it's quite valualbe.

I try to frame all the posters i get...just so i won't be tempted to EVER resell them.

I really don't understand selling framed posters. It seems like such a hassle to me. I sent a poster (in a tube) to oregon and it got crushed so the thought of sending GLASS through the mail just seems silly.

Do you think they'd flip a flipper poster??



8-)

they would .......but the TRUE ART OF FLIPPING ......takes a full year....

first you must buy the poster....

then you must say "this pearl jam poster will always remind me of a special time in my life" "i will NEVER EVER part with it"

then a month or 2 later you must say.....

"i only buy posters from the concerts i attend".... "i would never sell a poster for profit".... "anyone who does this is not a TRUE FAN"

then a month or 2 later you say...

"i would never sell a poster for profit!!!!" "how dare you even accuse me of such a thing!!!!"

then a few weeks later you say....."how much did that poster sell for on ebay????"

then a few weeks later you say....."when is brad klausen having his sale on his website????"

then a few weeks later you say...."hey everyone check out my cool framed posters!!!!!!"

then a month or 2 later you finally make........... "THE POST!!!!!!"

"HEY EVERYONE I AM SELLING MY ENTIRE PEARL JAM POSTER COLLECTION!!!!!! (of course you come up with some bullshit excuse as to why you have to sell them......and how DIFFICULT it is for you to part with them)

and there you have it.........

brilliant
