    Nothing against trading, though. Most of these are for trades. Hey, I need one myself.

    i am just saying that everyday there are multiple threads about people complaining about what is up for sale that day on eBay. it's a fact of life. people are going to have to learn to live with it.

    Some people are just so stupid. It's the fact that the 10c says no resales that has people upset. Alot of us would like to have bought a poster for ourselves yet obviously several flippers beat us to the punch. I really don't care all that much myself if I got one it would be hung with tacks. It's a fact of life that people are willing to pay so much over the original cost that is truly moronic.

    I hate this system also. It rewards the wrong people. I guarantee people are using programs to get a poster the second it comes up (the ebay jerks).
    On friday i clicked buy as soon as dusseldorf came up and said out of stock. I'm still mad.
    It just seems like there could be a better way to reward the people who actually like the band and the art. not the profiteers.
    I paid $200 for a book for fucks sake, you think i'd have a chance at a dusseldorf(One of my fav. all time posters).

    if it makes some of us feel better, ebay has cancelled at least 1 if not more than 1 auction for trying to sell Duss - its like it never existed there. I assume the seller is suspended.

    Interesting...I wonder on what basis ebay can cancel them? What real "proof" does anyone have that the seller didn't get it at the venue or something? Maybe 10c should stamp the back of prints we buy from the site "NOT FOR RESALE" or something - Ideally they could put the 10c number of the buyer on it or something so they can be reported if they are selling prints. The "first click" system just doesn't seem to work. Maybe everyone interested (although this would take forever and people would bitch that it ruins the print) - in posters (and maybe even show tickets) should have a window to "opt it", give their CCard numbers and the 10c could randomize it.

    Is being a dickhead one of the qualifications for joining tenclub?I wonder why they even bother with it sometimes considering how many fans get ripped off on merchandise and tickets by greedy bastards masquerading as fans.

    If anything, the 10C sale is going to help bring down the prices in the secondary market. So, if you got shut out of the sale wait a couple weeks and you will most likely get one for half the price they are going for now. The last VIC poster sold for $37 on eBay. The average price for that poster was over $100.
    ... are we going to the same place?

    That is the only way to stamp it and they could be reported but that may decrease teh value of the poster by marking it but i guess if u will never sell it then it wouldnt matter very good idea though

    the stamping thing is a good idea but what about people who buy them to trade them or end up trading them in the future. i know i might not want to trade with someone who has a "not for resale" print. seems to create just as many if not more problems lol.
