    I just got my poster and I guess I lucked out cause mine was in pretty good condition. It was a little hard to pull out of the tube, the tube was not sealed though. My print is number 113.
    However I'm down for banning together to complain cause I had to paid $60.12 for brokerage fees, with I think is outrageous to pay $82.12 shipping on a $125.00 poster.
  • Has anyone tried posting on his FB or Twitter accounts concerning these issuses? I was lucky to have my print from Mcfarlane come in damage free but feel for those who didn't.

    I wonder if they are in the midst of deciding what to do, if anything.

    Did you email them through your order page (you would of received a message with tracking number, there you would message back & forth about the item) or through their contact url page?

    That's weird. I posted the image @ 640 so you could see his & Maxx's sig here in the forum. If you click the url you'll see the whole image.

    Is there any word back from McFarlanes department on the prints?

    I'm waiting to get mine back in another week or so, cost me about $260 for the frame job :shock: but it's going to look great. Got an aged metal frame that matches the silvers/grays in the print, a textured red mat and a thin layer of green inside of that. If I can figure out how to post a pic on here I will :D

    so you bought a damaged print for more than it was originally going for?
  • DavidDDavidD Posts: 2,513
    When I bought it there was no word of damages and it was from someone from here that is trusted he got it and sent it to me. And I was the first to open it, the damages are not too bad on my print, nothing a frame won't hide. But i do have a issue with the ink on the right bottom side Of the print. So no I would not have bought a damaged print if I had known about the damage.

    The sad thing is Todd doesn't even know the monstrosities going on with how his poster was shipped. It is his customer service butchering the entire experience for 100 lucky fans!
  • DavidDDavidD Posts: 2,513
    The guy I bought the print from Lives down the street from his store and said that Todd is on vacation so maybe when he gets back something might happen??? But like I said, my print has a ink problem. Just have to Waite it out I guess.

    I wonder if Todd checks up his Facebook page. I say this cause he posts info & sales on his latest works & projects there. Is it he who is posting all this info or his customer service reps? But what's weird is his posts & images of the PJ print on the Facebook Like page are all gone. Deleted off the site since the problems were coming along.

    No chance he makes those posts himself. His twitter account is the same way - someone runs that for him, for sure.

    I don't know much about McFarlane or his work but I would hope he would stay somewhat in touch with is fans/customers even if he doesn't take care of all that stuff himself. Anyone tried to contact Maxx242? Maybe news can get back to McFarlane that way.

    I have a very hard time believing that McFarlane hasnt heard about the shipping fiasco within his own company.
    And so you see, I have come to doubt
    All that I once held as true
    I stand alone without beliefs
    The only truth I know is you.

    Maxx242's customer service is amazing, Friend had his print delivered damadged. Although most likely from USPS, cause the tube had a huge dent and crease in it. He e-mailed pics to Maxx and was sent a new print. I'm assuming he gave him one from his personal stash. Maxx did the same thing when the Billboard print oversold, sending out some of his personal stash # 1/50

    Yeah, I've had great experience with pretty much every poster artist. Often the artist himself writes back but I always get a response. I bought two posters separately from Sperry and emailed him about getting matching numbers... got a note right back saying he already did because he tries to do that with poster sets. Good man :D

    But then again, McFarlane is not a poster artist and seems bigger than the ones I normally buy from. Just seems like too much time has gone on with nothing from McFarlane which is a shame. I'm sure that will not affect his fan base, but it does leave a sour taste in the mouth and countless unnecessarily damaged artwork. I mean, I've gotten damaged posters before and it was painful to see, I imagine it would hurt more when it's your own work? No?

    Anyone have any first pics of a complete frame job on this bad boy?

    I'm thinking of doing this one myself. It's been a couple of years since I've framed my own poster.
