I feel bad for the person who is actually going to the show, who has the posters sell out right in front of him because people are buying posters for people who arent going to the show. Leave the posters for the people attending the concerts.
fair point, but we all know thats not how this works.....
how about the 100 or so that get bought to go on ebay.....and make someone some money.....
whereas if fans can help fans out without them having to pay increased prices surely thats a good idea.....I will get the poster one way or another....so its not exactly depriving a fan of having it, its stopping someone making a bucketload of cash flipping it...
Your theory is all well and good....and I agree with it.....in a bubble world....
if someone wants the poster badly they will get there early and grab it, I'm merely asking that if anyone gets the chance to grab me one that they do so, as i would be extremely indebted to them, and will as always throw them some rare recordings as my way of saying thanks....or maybe even trade anohter poster from the tour so far thats s/n

2 wrongs dont make a right.
Leave the posters for people going to the shows. I understand you want one, but so do I, and if I am going to the show I should have a 100% better chance at getting one than you. Buying one for someone who isnt there has the same result as someone buying one to flip it. There will be someone there that doesnt get one because one was bought for somone who wasnt there.
You offering to "throw in some rare recordings' is the same thing as someone paying an extra 30 bucks for one through a flipper.
no, its offering to help out a fellow fan who helps out a fellow fan......
I hope you get one regardless.....
I do follow your argument, but its not realistic, its a plain fact that tomorrow there will be tens of them on ebay, I dont want to have to pay inflated prices, that would be wrong. Dont want to get into an argument about it, you have your opinion I have mine, lets leave it at that...
sure Brad will sell them online and put an option on that allows people that went to the show the chance first....because that clearly the right thing to do

definitely agreed. you'll have a chance to trade for one or buy from Klausen or 10c later on....you don't even know for sure what this one will look like...
Why do these poster threads always turn into pissing contests on who has the better morals.
If someone going to the show wants the poster, they should be sure to arrive before the person going to the show but buying the poster for someone not attending the show. Problem solved.

Good point. I will tell my boss that I need to leave work 3 hours early 5 different days to get a poster. Thanks for your help.

Its one of those things isnt it, and to be expected round here.....
Why is it that everytme there is some kind of merch - you are on here asking people to pick up stuff for you. Its hard enough for a person to get their own stuff, let alone worry about someone elses crap, If you want one bad enough you can :
A) Go to the show or Go to Ebay or ebeans or
C) Wait for the 10c Sale.
Too many flippers coming here asking people to pick stuff up. I mean c'mon - ask once maybe twice for something you really really need.
Im sure there are plenty of folks want something from the shows they cant attend, shit, i want a poster too, but it'll just have to wait.

That was WAAAAY out of line(imho). Do you know him?? P is one of the coolest collectors I have ever known. Why would you ASSume that because he asked here, he is a flipper? Dont be a hater because he has the balls to ask. If as a collector, you want one, you will find any way you can to get it. Hell, I am not going to ONE east coast show, and if everything works out for me, I will have posters from 1/2 the shows! You gonna call me a flipper too? If so, I am in some pretty good company, cause there are some pretty good people who come here and ask for help, most recieve it, and you wont see them on the bay. end rant.....
My friend was going to see Eddie last night. Since he was in Vegas, I gave him 5 Grand to gamble with. I told him I wanted it all to go on Black. Bastard! PhillyCrownOfThorns-11-2-12

and the people going to the shows are more likely to not get a poster from the show they ATTENDED because people are buying for people who arent attending the show. they are plenty of chances to get the poster after the show. leave the posters at the show for people at the show. Not fair to the guy who sees the posters selll out in front of him.
and I am not calling you a flipper. I understand you collect them. but its still not right.

Yes, because people who didn't attend the show should be forced to pay flipper prices on Ebay, or try to get one of the 3 APs brad puts up on his site for sale, or wait the 6 months for 10C to put them up for sale on the site. You are totally right. :rolleyes:
btw, did your boss allow you the time off, or is he going to get back to you?
"Fuck the talkin', let's start rocking." - E.V. 9-5-00
You know guys, some people just don't get it.....probably best to leave them to it...
At the end of the day this thread was basically started to ask if anyone would be kind enough to help, as loads of you guys would if you had a chance (some great folk have done me favours and me likewise in return), not as a vehicle for people to come along and say its wrong to ask, if you don't like the thread, dont read it and move on....I really dont need your input its not dead helpful, you could of course go and create your own thread about why this shouldnt happen....I probably wont stop by....

Just want people to realize that by helping you out, there will be someone at the show who gets shut out. If they still want to help you that is thier choice.

I wasnt saying YOU were calling me a flipper, it was more rhetorical than anything else. That said, how do we know that the people buying at the shows arent going to sell them as well? Just because you go to the show, doesnt me your intentions are anymore pure than anyone else. There are going to be people who wanted one that wont get one whether here or 10C.

to call me a flipper is also retarded, I've never sold a single poster. I collect. Prick.
whats wrong with a friendly request. Some people have been very receptive to helping me out....
The people who wants them the most will get theirs. Thats just how it is, both at the show and in the aftermarket.
Second, Paul is no flipper and have been nothing but friendly and humble in his requests!
