Have been going back and forth on this idea for several days, and after one last self-debate I've decided to say "fcuk it" and open up a thread. Yes, the "100% Package Deals Thread" is exactly what you think it is. No, we will not have any hard and fast "rules" (pish-posh). But we WILL have guidelines, such as:
1) To sell in this thread, your "Package Deal" must contain 3 OR MORE PRINTS to be considered a "package deal". Then again, if you wanna offer two killer prints at a badass price...no one's gonna shriek at you or add you to a list or anything.
2) Discussion's encouraged! It is, in fact, the reason we're here: lately I've been getting a fudge-ton of PM's from people who want a second opinion on the package deal they're putting together ("Do you think this will sell?" , etc). Well, now there's an entire thread where you can get that feedback. Wondering if your lineup will sell? Post it here: if someone digs it, it'll get bought....
3) ....and if you DON'T like someone's package deal? Remain calm. Try to explain-- in as non-dickish a manner as possible-- how the deal could be made more attractive to you if that's possible. But if you hate the prints on offer and want 'em even cheaper than what they're being offered at? Better just skip it: if the deal sucks, it won't sell, and that's the seller's problem...not yours.
4) Why keep this separate from the HUT? Well, I know that most people don't come to the HUT looking to read lengthy posts from buyers offering complicated package deals: you go in the HUT for quick, easily-acquired hookups, not for an impromptu bit of math homework. In other words, you can consider this thread a safe haven for trying out your weirdest sales ideas, or for trying stuff that might otherwise get you stabbed in the HUT.
Got questions? Ask away. More to come momentarily....

Here, I'll kick things off (please make sure you note how long your offers are good for: the following three deals are good for the next 12 hours):
+ + +
SUPERHERO 3-PACK (And a HORKEY 'Cause I'm Outta Superhero Stuff)
Total Average: ~$650
PACKAGE PRICE: $450, shipped/insured (DROPPED!)
NOTE: The DKR has a bend in one corner, but it's impossible to see in a frame (mine's on the wall as we speak)
YOU SAVE: $200+, or like you're getting the FANTASTIC PLANET free.
+ + +
HORROR 4-PACK
Total Average: ~$400
PACKAGE PRICE: $300, shipped/insured (DROPPED!)
NOTE: Reworked deal, dropped over $100 off the value, here's hoping they move!
+ + +
RANDOMIZER: 1 + 1 + 3 + a bonus print
Total Average: $600+ (with bonus print)
NOTES: You get 2 posters, plus Ansin's 3-piece ALASKA set, PLUS an added bonus print
PACKAGE PRICE: $415, shipped/insured (DROPPED, BUT LOW AS I CAN GO ON THESE)
YOU SAVE: Roughly $200, after accounting for shipping costs, insurance, etc.
EDIT #2: Overhauls galore....basically improved every deal across the board. Again. Oh, and also: these three deals reflect over $500 in discounts.
Suck it, Earff.

(light edgewear on right-hand border, would frame out easily, can send pics before you pay)

$265 shipped / insured, and I'll throw in a McCarthy print from last year's sub (might have a little bit of waviness, but would look fine under glass) for free. Offer good for the next 96 hours.
Great idea for a thread!

Heh, originally my response read: "Niiiice package".RiotAct wrote:you can handle my package any day, ScottDrScott44 wrote:Tip o' the hat, sir.
Then I decided not to use up all the "package"-related (bad) jokes this early in the thread.... and now you've forced my hand, sir.

Good deal. Definitely. The NIGHTMARE alone is worth $10 MORE than that total...including the shipping. Take that out, and you're basically getting a few free prints.
Great work, guys!

Average: $267.65
Original cost: $140.
$180 shipped for all four. I'll include some fun freebies in the tube too.
Shipping will cost me $20. Take 5% off of 180 for paypal fees, that's another $9. That's basically my cost + $10. Count my time spent in line and it's basically below cost (assuming I'm worth more than $2.50 an hour)!
