Poster is in great shape, but is dry mounted. Looks great in the frame.
Mixed opinion on value with dry mounting but when l look at in the frame it looks amazing.
$1000

    @tommy boy what was the "best offer"?SHZA said:

    I see this tried to sell at $2100 before.

    I also can not BELIEVE someone paid $1000 for a dry mounted poster.

    Bravo to you!

    Its amazing in person and if I didnt have it, I would have paid that all day.  To each his own tempo and groove my friend.

    The fact that any poster sells for anything close to $1,000 is ridiculous. These people's bank accounts must be deep enough that they don't have to justify the drop in their balance to a partner due to a got-to-have-it concert poster.

    It's all relative. The uber wealthy spend millions on a single piece of fine art, which the rest of us can't fathom. If you have the disposable income, spending a couple grand on a so-called "grail" that will give you years of enjoyment isn't ridiculous at all.

    Dude, I get amazed at every new high level sale of a mangled/dry mounted poster.

    This item has a pretty wild history.

    It was put up for sale on 7/15 framed with no mention of dry mounting. Best offer of $2,000 accepted on 7/22.

    Guessing that fell through (dry mounting a problem?) because the same account lists it again on 8/6 but without the frame and now acknowledging the dry mounting. Sells for $1,000 in less than a day despite only "Pearl Jam Poster" in the description.

    I find the lack of information interesting too.

    Wait to see this used somewhere as leverage.  I think I'm going to sell my Sea98 for 3g now!

    i'm interested in this as well.  $1k for a drymounted poster is crazy.

    If you don't intend to resell and can't tell the difference once it's on the wall, seems pretty attractive to pay $1k instead of $2k.

    I disagree and feel like once you get into a certain stratosphere of price, the potential resale value is a big factor. I would much rather drop 2k and feel confident I could recoup it if I needed to vs. dropping 1k and worry about it being worth a fraction of that.

    Resale is certainly a huge factor if you plan or want the option to resell it. But there are a lot of people who have been looking for these 98 prints for years and would never dream of selling unless things were truly dire. And there's no guarantee that the resale value of a non dry-mounted version won't plummet once the bubble bursts. There is clearly demand even in a dry-mounted state, so the worry about being able to recoup only a fraction of the purchase price is probably unfounded.
