The pin could be a software pirate.
Software pirating was becoming pretty popular when I was a kid. We had a Commodre 64 and my dad used to have these "pirates" come over and they would copy floppy disks and then head to the local stationary place to photocopy the manuals. One dude was pretty weird, took it fairly seriously and actually wore a pirate patch. My dad said the guy would take the patch off before they entered the copy store so they didn't get busted. Serious business.

Posted some pics in the eBay advice thread for anyone that wants to see a terribly shipped abomination from a flipper with zero clue. Hopefully going to get my money back and then find another one of these prints, preferably one that wasn't used as a welcome mat.35mmpaul wrote:pics?

Yea this is pretty cut and dry as far as a claim goes. I'd message him first of course and if he doesn't like it, hit that claim button and let eBay take care of the rest.noeldaddy wrote:Easy claim if he says no. There's an option to check off "item not received as described" or something to that effect. You'll get a refund, don't worry

Just a quick clarification (as I appreciate it's not totally clear) - my variant MT contained:jbarnes020889 wrote:Anyone else get a quad in their's?
As I thought they were only including stuff from themselves, Vice and Acme
SW reg - Ananphada
ES var - Connelly
NBC - Loukotka
FMF Kylie handbill - Stout
Demogorgon (gold) pin
V pin
HP quad
However, after looking back through the thread (after making the post) it appears people got their 3+ randoms + BB/ES var + 2 pins (and quad as a bonus). My initial question was more directed at whether people got a quad instead of one of their 3 randoms, as I wasn't aware this would be the case.
My bad for not being clearer.

After yesterday sale thought it would be time to bring this thread back to life and count down to our shipping labels in a few weeks.

And two other prints one I think is a blade runner print where it’s a pink lady on the screen and somebody is watching but can’t find it and another that says alien3 and a green girl.
Did you read the page you bought these on?
