Christ, Michael, why don't you just call me an asshole or something! Every word of your post sounds like a pathetic whine. I'd prefer it if you'd tell me to go to Poster Hell or stick a pin in a little Rick Ryan doll...ANYTHING but whining about the damn thing! In a message dated 9/3/2010 5:00:08 P.M.

sue--- you did not read the earlier posts. 2 days ago this person attacked the prices of my posters on ebay. i affirm the notion that poster values are whatever the buyers/sellers agree. so why did he attack my prices? i merely pointed out that if he wants to give an estimate, he should not say that a poster "regularly sells for $250-350" when bruce's last sale was 132. and we know bruce fetches great prices. when i gave my estimate 2 days, HE ATTACKED ME PUBLICY ON MOPO. so please read the entire thread. but, the dealers stick together. dont they? happy labor day. michael The one great thing about having various sources to buy from is that you can select, of your own free will, the seller with the best options for you, whether price, condition or whatever. So, I think this should be a private conservation between buyer and seller, not fodder for all of us to speculate on a private purchase. I think Rick has very fair prices, he always has. Whenever I ask for something that I need here on the group, he is usually one of the first to respond and often for the lowest price and I receive it within a day or two. Now, I'm sure he has items that are more costly, but since he is the owner of them, he has the right to ask whatever price he wants as do you Michael and, of course, you have the right to say "thank you" but "no thank you". Isn't the price determined by what the market will bear, whether privately, on Ebay or the internet? Don't most people want to get the most for their items they can? I remember a day when both of those posters went for more than Rick is asking for them, but times have changed and the economy is not doing so well these days. So..... have a great weekend everyone.......Thank you.

To: _mop...@listserv.american.edu_ (mailto:MoPo-L@LISTSERV.AMERICAN.EDU) didn't i buy Letter From An Unknown Woman insert 3 months ago from you as a private sale for more money than bruce sold the same poster? i was happy to get it, although you took forever to send it. i suppose it proves that a price is determined by whatever a buyer and seller agree. even though you are way overpriced or trying to give illusions that your 2 posters are valued a lot higher than anyone else on MOPO would agree, there might be someone willing to overpay on ebay. notice how the dealers are not saying anything about your inflated prices? as i always say, MOPO dealers stick together. good luck..... michael In a message dated 9/3/2010 7:10:13 P.M.
