I must not have been clear initially.
I want this poster, but not in this condition. When it first surfaced I sent him a message asking if he might have a second poster in nicer condition, which he did not. I asked for a number of close-up pictures of the damage and was really put out. It has too many pinholes and the tape damage is extremely unsightly. Even at $49.99, I couldn't bring myself to buy a UK Raiders poster in that condition. I knew that even if I bought this damaged one I'd be sitting there waiting for a nicer one to replace it, and $50 is a lot to drop on a placeholder.
I was simply remarking that after two failed 10-day cycles at $49.99 he upped the price to $125, although Wonka's explanation makes sense. And it it makes you feel any better, Mr. Wonka, I have an Amsel-art Raiders daybill on the way as we speak.
And before anybody gets on my back for buying a daybill, I prefer the wording of the text better. In our last thread I explained that the subtle text changed makes Indy sound more like a new roller coaster at a popular theme park where the 1-Sheet makes him sound more like a new flavor of ice cream. I also accidentally insinuated that Indiana Jones was bisexual and it was a quality I particularly fancied in the character. Sometimes I'm bad at explaining things.
