    Surely you understand that in the USa you have the most powerful economic country in the world. What happens there sends ripples across the globe, due to their status which they earned, they are always gonna feature in our news. What happens in Oz, really has little impact on the UK, you understand that right?

    Its not a slight on Australia, not at all, I love Australia, and could happily move there, but in terms of the bigger picture, and against the states, its not a big deal.

    maybe we are both wrong, I noticed he has items signed to a few different names, Lisa being one??? maybe he bought this stuff like that, or got it from friends, who knows....I shot him a few questions to see how deep the collection is. It seems there may be a lot more we havent seen yet

    I would buy the collection, but I think the shipping will be too expensive.

    Interesting how the OP changes into different discussions... :)
    My idea was to think how hard times must be to sell off my complete collection?? And what would i feel after loosing all of these wonderful pieces of memory...it would break my heart!!

    I think there is more stuff to come! I am really curios...

    Thats the laziest ebay auction I ever saw.

    is it worth 30k?

    quite simply no, although to give the seller credit I think he acknowleges he doesnt expect that price.

    There is just not a great deal there that is collectible. I think the majority of the sigs look legit, so if your an auto collector thats a great buy at a sensible price, but 30k is way way way off the mark.

    The framing doesnt look exactly prestige stuff, it looks bog standard, the bridges box looks shafted (although great item), and 85% of the posters are readily available, and who wants pictures signed 'to dom'....

    odd

    I know everyone is different.... but this guy is making it sound like he couldn't survive without selling his collection...and for 30K? :lol:

    My husband lost his job and I'm not working (at least a paying job)....we have four kids.... we lost all of our funds we saved as well as our retirement funds.... no health coverage insurance at the moment.... and I'm working on avoiding foreclosure on our house (I'm pretty sure I can do that! :mrgreen:)

    I never sold my PJ stuff for more than face value. :P

    I sold some of our posters for face value to prevent water shut off last year.

    But people react differently I guess - I think it comes from our backgrounds of growing up poor so we know it's not the end of the world and eventually we'll rise again.... yeah, I know it sucks to live in USA when you lose everything and you're denied pretty much everything.

    Sounds like hard times. Hope it's all gonna turn out right.

    I agree that the seller is going to town with the sale, sure, losing a job is a big financial hit but selling EVERYTHING?! That is overkill...

    I think the seller just heard a leak of Backspacer, was the only person on the planet not to like it and decided to sell all of thier Pearl Jam stuff in one go!
    we're all going to the same place...
