The continuation is that he emailed me the regarding the same poster I had consigned above (I did tell him I had a copy in better condition).
Anyway he told me that a collector was looking and was willing to to pay an insane price. I thought about it and consulted my wife
I got back to him and wanted to maybe go ahead. He replied that the collector had already acquired another copy which I have no problem with but his last line was
you snooze you lose
I should have told him to fuck off back to his mum's basement and play with his Ken accessories.
It wouldn't surprise me if he lurks here, and in that case you're basically saying that to him now haha.
The snarky "you snooze you lose" sounds like something he'd say.
Although it's unprofessional, it's his style. A very nonchalant approach to his exponentially overcharging folks on common stuff, and extreme overcharging on higher end stuff.
I spoke with him on the phone a couple times. I won't share everything discussed but I remember asking about a few posters of my favorite genre and he said something like "there are a few that are collectable but most are worthless.". I'll take my "worthless" stuff that are some of my favorites over hyped up, overpriced stuff any day.
