I'm guessing his first initial is T, and not the one on this board...
Chop, rolled posters are always preferred, but us older collectors who buy mostly pre-70's don't "usually" have much choice. It's folded or nothing..... And we have No problem with that.
But if given the choice, as certain titles do pop up rolled now and again, more so in Quads than 1shts, if it's in financial limits I would buy it over the folded one. Though if it was a case of spend £500 to up grade to a rolled poster, my £500 would be going elsewhere...I would only buy rolled if, I didn't already have it, or it was a special poster to me. Otherwise....
