So he bought for 66.00 + shipping then sold for $71.00 +13.00 shipping. What a wicked waste of time.

I paid $13 shipping on the first sale also. I'm happy that someone else will enjoy the print. Seriously, this started out with me just asking a question, then realizing I was wrong & admitting to it - next thing I know I'm being trashed and portrayed as some A hole. I swear a few of you here are living caricatures right out of a Obey print. Not a great return on my money - about 9%....but its been a lot of fun!

I agree that it may have been blown out of proportion but it was kinda dumb to infer that the print was fake when if you have ever seen an Obey print before you would have known it was not. :wink:

Just asking a question? You totally put me on blast, holmes.

Dear messcon5,

got the print today. Im afraid its a fake. Just a large photocopy. I own a large print shop and collect obey art, so for me it was apparent right away. How would you like to handle this?

Yeah, then he has to pay eBay listing fees, eBay selling fees and Paypal fees, so he probably just about breaks even.
