Thats hilarious.  Congrats!

i picture some lunatics here hoping their kids aren't born on the 10th of the month

That poor kid would be ridiculed for years.  

"Just had to born on the 10th?  Because of you I missed out on a vault release"

So, how many people that DIDN'T attend the show buy these posters?

Too many "collectors" that want everything even if they weren't there 

Are we really knocking people for buying a print for a show that they did not attend?

I'm not knocking anything or anybody... just pointing out why posters for shows with an attendance of 3,000 sell out in 30 seconds like 30,000 people were there

People can buy what they want... sell what they want... trade what they want... doesn't bother me at all... we own several posters ourselves and have several framed and hanging

What bothers me is they watch this year after year and don't seem to increase print runs or at least the artist print runs... a lot of PJ fans are insane collectors at this point, or flippers, so the least that should happen is 200 prints for the artist... and I would have no issue with artists like Brad selling their PJ/EV prints for $200

I only recently got the bug of buying concert posters as art, and I have all of them displayed. I particularly like getting A/P, of which I have 3. 

After the last Mystery Box sale, I did notice that a lot of fans only buy merchandise to use as currency for other trades, which also feeds into the market of buying items for non-attended shows. I'm cool with that too, as it eventually stays within reach of fan's wallets. 

It's a free world... it is what it is and there isn't much you or I can do about it

Again, I think the solution is adding quantity and upping the price

When neil young plays a small venue... if you want 5th row it costs $275... which I have no problem with, because it gives me the chance to buy it directly from the onsale and give that $ to the artist instead of some guy sitting in his underpants on the couch making more than Neil on his own ticket.... same here, I would rather pay Brad $200 and likely get a print I want, making sure he gets all the money, instead of a flipper making more than Brad on his own print

This poster mayham is normal, it happens no matter what tour. Eventually another cool one comes out and knocks the next one out. It's just about what people like and if they let the storm calm and feeding frenzy slow down, they'll get what they want when people realize they're not going to get those ridiculous prices they want. Been some nice posters this tour but there are still a lot of other great ones out there from the past that exist, AND, more shows to come and I'm pretty sure a U.S. tour will follow eventually. Tour time is flipper paradise..... Just ride it out and you'll eventually get your hands on the one you like for a NORMAL PRICE, NOT WHAT SOMEONE PUTS UP FOR SALE CAUSE THEY THINK IT WILL ACTUALLY BE SOLD AT A RIDICULOUS COST. We've all been around this place for awhile now, it will never change.
