I can't remember, but did Rob/Mitch own part of mondo, or just managers/curators of the brand? Can't remember the lineage of the brand.

RIP mondo
that's just awesome
Rob, Mitch, and Eric were the owners, right? Rob and Mitch definitely were and I thought there was one more owner.sidewaysscott wrote: ↑Tue Mar 28, 2023 10:02 amI can't remember, but did Rob/Mitch own part of mondo, or just managers/curators of the brand? Can't remember the lineage of the brand.
Huh? It's completely legitimate for them to hold back part of print runs for their own archive. They probably kept numbers 1 through 20 to use for themselves I'm guessing. Artists do that all the time. They aren't required to sell their entire print run all at once.fantasticninja wrote: ↑Tue Mar 28, 2023 9:49 amI guess Mondo went out with a bang with that big auction sale they did a few months back. Again I find it odd they saved #16 on a bunch of their prints just to hold them off for an auction. I clicked over 100 prints on that auction sale and they were all #16. To me that sounds like some shady business because they know full well their prints skyrocket in value over time.

come on now. They have no obligation to sell every print during initial drop. Why wouldn't they hold some back either for their personal collection or other reasons. fudge, see this all the time with Chuck Sperry and EMEK prints. Let the artists and curators make some money. Maybe #16 was their favorite number, and maybe they needed some additional funds and sold their personal allotment. You honestly can't think that they knew the prints would "skyrocket" in value over time...pssh. Not every print is gold.fantasticninja wrote: ↑Tue Mar 28, 2023 9:49 amI guess Mondo went out with a bang with that big auction sale they did a few months back.

lolz at people who think that,
- only the edition size is printed and no other copies exist.
- that no unnumbered copies are held back incase of shipping damages.
- that no one high up in mondo or alamo got personal copies.
- that the movie poster auctions were mondo themselves, holding back posters in the hopes of doing 'shady business because they know full well their prints skyrocket in value over time.'
like....what do you think nets more value, printing 100s or 1000s at $50 and selling those.
OR
One person selling one print 5-10 years later at completely varying levels of value.

They are regularly referred to as founders of Mondo, so they definitely had some ownership.jojobadass wrote: ↑Tue Mar 28, 2023 11:27 amTim league owned mondo

As an attorney who litigates these types of cases, this is incorrect. The practicalities of enforcing a noncompete rarely align with whether a noncompete is actually enforceable under the law. But firing someone does not automatically render a noncompete invalid (at least in the US).jpgkc wrote: ↑Sat Mar 25, 2023 5:22 pmWhen you let people go like this, any kind of "non-compete" clause gets invalidated. There's no way to defend it. The firing of these people invalidates anything in those contracts, and there's a trend against upholding "non-compete" clauses, in general, because they're so anti-worker.
