sooo, you get a FREE poster print, you kindly ask the very nice artist to sign and doodle on your poster...then you immediately sell the print on the bay and make a quick $800+.

its too bad there isn't a velvet turtle in LA, because you are a class act cake-boy.

I'm sorry we cant be friends, but i have an ounce of morality.

It's a shame this is being instantly flipped as Nick clearly took some time to nicely customise the poster for the seller

[jonvespa]

thats my point...its not the FLIPPING that bothers me...its that i watched nick spend like 15 minutes on this drawing, thinking it was for a fan....and that it will be sold for a grip of cash, and nick wont see a dime....lame.

[Martin Whatson]

its a shame.*
jon said it all.

I agree with others on this thread, I do not like seeing this sort of thing but whilst people are willing to buy it there will people willing to do it.

The way you stop it is by not getting involved i.e. do not buy it. I am lucky enough to have a couple of personalized items from Nick, I cherish them, have never posted pictures of them on here and would only sell them after the rest had gone. But that is just me!!!

[Filipino Box Spring Hog]

thing is...if nick sees this going on too much, he's likely to stop signing these show posters and then that just ruins it for all the folks who want a personalized momento

As is the way of the law of the sod.

Where money is involved there will allways exist greed and scum

[scavos]

Yep, what art-el said.

Nick was really cool to do this for us at the show and I hope this doesn't turn him away from doing it for fans in the future.

I guess it just comes with the territory though. The fact that this is selling for about twice the cost of the TMA Hollywood print and half the cost of some originals for sale there at the show says it all. Where there is money to be made, people will make it and no matter how much we like or dislike it, that's always going to be the case.

My signed poster actually got a little banged up in transit back from the show, which is depressing, but is sitting safely in my portfolio nonetheless.

$1,375

[mp]

Ok, so it went for more than twice the cost of the print. That's just crazy.

well that's brave of this idiot posting his "purchase agreement"...but i may have to throw a bid in anyhow as it's highly unlikely i'll have any luck with the brp release...fingers crossed.

Yikes! Ruben Garay better hope Carmichael Gallery doesn't frown upon flipping!

[rkitek]

Ouch! Alright, not the smartest move on his part to include that in the listing.

[jonvespa]

not the brightest bulb in the bunch.
