EMP seems like its fine for those who like it, but its paying a premium for something that can be purchased for much less elsewhere for many of the items if its not a vintage poster.
people just don't care. the value of money is relative... there is a reason people buy on artsy and pay 2-3x the price than ebay. peace of mind. simple as that. a doctor that wants a print is just gonna buy it where he can with the least hassle and most trust instead of scouring the web for the best deal.

Good old mondo thread.

Remember a while back when they teased the Indy license? Or the A24xvacuum collab? Did they just forget about that stuff?
Does Vacvvm still exist? What ever happened to pwints (pwints? the kids thing that was going on for a bit)? Where has the past gone? Where will the future take us?

Has the bubble burst yet?

Who else thinks one of the Durieux boys bought it?

Holy cow that 'Rear Window'..looks like my regular will be going up. Still can't believe I scored it from the Mondo site when they went up.

His Birds print went for $4900 and Jaws for $4200. The Birds you can get on ebay for half of that but the cheapest Jaws is $7000. I personally prefer his Birds and Tiffany's prints over all his others, but it is a mystery. Art really is worth whatever someone is willing to pay for it.

it's rated a 9.8. CGC comics rated that are highly coveted and go for several thousands of dollars regardless if a perfect non rated mint comic that looks exactly the same goes for $50.
