I'm not trying to start an argument, I was just pointing out that that was (in my opinion) a weak offer. When I first got into collecting these prints I offered a dude a Tyrant Boot for his Peace Tree. That was a weak offer. I didn't know that, though. All I knew was that I fought like hell for that print and figured that it was worth something. I didn't know it was far less desirable than Peace Tree. Either way that guy probably thought I was an buttocks. I thought maybe you were doing the same thing, so I figured I'd point out the difference in values. Yes it was cheeky, and I apologize.SFSTRAT wrote:Ok. To who ever made that cheeky remark about 'thats like saying I'll give you a $50.00 dollar bill for your $100.00 dollar bill' --- lets see where that gets you in like 2 months. DoH 4 is going to sell at ridiculous prices at first and then it will go down just like the rest of the series. Once flippers start competing with each other on the bay, I see this going for $200.00 MAX. So for me to offer a print that does go for around $165.00 seems about fair. Furthermore, Yea I'm asking to trade a print that I paid $50 for, for a print you'll pay $50 for. But I guess some people are not cool enough to hook a brother up. AND BIG UPS TO BLAZE.

I do think, though, that time will show the DOH print to be more valuable. It's from a series, and people will want the complete set. It's also had more exposure, and is a collab with a (famous?) photographer. It's more representative of Shep's work as a whole as well. My opinion of course.

Actually I don't think so, not unless you are a different name on EB. No harm intended either way though.toobs wrote:so u are the guy that offered me that recockulous deal

I dig Duality 4 much more than Duality 2.robotoil wrote:Powerful image. No corny slogans. Nice design pattern in the background. It's striking in it's simplicity. Hands are good. Not quite as good as DOH2, but a might fine print. However, not family friendly if that is a concern. 2 thumbs up.

Not I. The tight focus makes 2 for me. 4 has a sense of isolation, sure, perhaps the point, but something about the subject matter is stronger when its up close, you get a cramped sweaty feeling from 2 IMO. 2 & 3 are still my favorites.Patillac13 wrote:I dig Duality 4 much more than Duality 2.robotoil wrote:Powerful image.
