I sent a complaint to ebay about this guy... I noticed the possibility of Shill bidding. I think he uses other accounts to bumb the price up. Didn't hear anything back on this. If you look at the TWBB print there is a account that is new that has bid up the price to $20. Same thin happended on his other listings. They are all Olly Moss prints. He had Robocop up a few days ago... it sold for over $200! If it's fake this needs to be stopped.

Mine was printed on some super cheap thin paper, numbered out of 300, not 200, and the blood dripping from the lips of the vampire was still there, which obviously got omitted on the real piece.
I'm in Canada and it costs more to ship everywhere, so get over it.

These were extremely limited run prints and very hard to find
Should be an easy refund.

“Sellers: As a seller you are liable to PayPal if you lose a Claim
from a buyer with a PayPal account registered anywhere in the world.
This includes, without limitation, where you sell to a buyer who is a
Full Programme User and the buyer files a SNAD Claim, in which case
you will generally be required to accept the item back and refund the
buyer the full purchase price plus original shipping costs. You will
not receive a refund on your PayPal fees. If you lose a Significantly
Not as Described Claim because the item you sold is counterfeit, you
will be required to provide a full refund to the buyer and you will
not receive the item back (it will be destroyed)
.”


You won't even have to send it back. This one clearly was meant to deceive the buyer into thinking they were buying the Mondo poster. He describes it as a whole lot of things that it isn't. I'd go ahead and report those remaining auctions now as well. Looks like someone is about to get duped again on There Will Be Blood :?

Are you sure that it is /300 and not /200 with bad handwriting? Olly doesn't exactly have the best penmanship....

This is the Let Me In print for those interested. Maybe others here can upload pics of theirs for comparison.

Wow, I was just looking at the TWBB auction and found it odd that he didn't mention the print run in the listing then saw this thread. Thanks for creating it and saving me a potential headache as I might have bid on it for the right price closer to closing.

Edit that. The mods do not take kindly to posting private information. Pm people instead.

positive, silver ink clear as day... even if the numbers were right it still has blood dripping from the vampires mouth and it's on the thinnest paper I've ever seen..... 100% fako
