Title: 2001 New Years Poster Post by: Mechanical-Worm on November 29, 2009, 11:02:27 PM I recently purchased this poster and was curious to how much it's actually "worth".
I'm not looking to sell it just curious to see if I paid too much. (http://www.gigposters.netau.net/fgx/fgx-gnr-hob.jpg) Title: Re: 2001 New Years Poster Post by: willow on November 30, 2009, 09:11:37 AM I couldn't tell you a price but it one of the ones worth a nice bit.

It is priceless. or It's worth....$100 million dollars. Pick your poison. Title: Re: 2001 New Years Poster Post by: Mechanical-Worm on November 30, 2009, 03:37:17 PM I only paid 30 so Im not worried.

Title: Re: 2001 New Years Poster Post by: thinkaboutyou on November 30, 2009, 09:02:02 PM Hard to tell if original or reprint
But if you get it cheap who cares Title: Re: 2001 New Years Poster Post by: Mechanical-Worm on November 30, 2009, 09:26:45 PM It's original.
I have 2 and 1 was free cause I got it in 2002 from someone who ended up attending the show. Title: Re: 2001 New Years Poster Post by: troccoli on December 01, 2009, 04:24:05 AM It's original. I have 2 and 1 was free cause I got it in 2002 from someone who ended up attending the show. How do you know? Curious because I have one and tend to believe it's not original but I would glad to know if there's someway to tell. These have been on eBay off an on for years and I've always remained skeptical. Thanks Title: Re: 2001 New Years Poster Post by: wadey on December 01, 2009, 01:59:59 PM have you recieved it yet or still waiting for it
this guy on ebay is selling one. looking at the pic it could be the same guy where you got yours from http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Guns-N-Roses-2001-Las-Vegas-FGX-Concert-Poster-Mint-CD_W0QQitemZ180439414878QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_0?hash=item2a0306f85e (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Guns-N-Roses-2001-Las-Vegas-FGX-Concert-Poster-Mint-CD_W0QQitemZ180439414878QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_0?hash=item2a0306f85e) because these prints are pretty scarce would it be possible to have a "stock photo" or would the seller need to photograph the actual item Title: Re: 2001 New Years Poster Post by: Mechanical-Worm on December 01, 2009, 04:14:47 PM Nope thats not it, and yeah I ahve it
Title: Re: 2001 New Years Poster Post by: thinkaboutyou on December 01, 2009, 05:48:18 PM personally I think the new ones listed on Ebay are stock photos reprinted
Title: Re: 2001 New Years Poster Post by: wadey on December 02, 2009, 09:01:03 AM Nope thats not it, and yeah I ahve it so why not post a proper pic rather than a stock photo which could be a reprint Title: Re: 2001 New Years Poster Post by: troccoli on December 02, 2009, 09:56:28 PM Nope thats not it, and yeah I ahve it so why not post a proper pic rather than a stock photo which could be a reprint seconded Title: Re: 2001 New Years Poster Post by: NaturalLight on December 02, 2009, 10:35:59 PM Anyone have any idea what the difference would be. Maybe a thicker paper for the original? I think it's a cool "poster", so I'd settle for something that wasn't the original if it didn't cost too much and looked close enough.

I was watching the one that he bid on myself. Debating it, but passed. Title: Re: 2001 New Years Poster Post by: Mechanical-Worm on December 03, 2009, 03:54:46 PM Thats not it, I just used that picture because its the only one I know of thats detailed enough without taking one myself. I didn't purchase my poster off ebay.
I'll post one later. Title: Re: 2001 New Years Poster Post by: Mr. Redman on December 03, 2009, 04:14:44 PM Okay...
Weird the one that was just on eBay happened to go for thirty as well. Title: Re: 2001 New Years Poster Post by: Mechanical-Worm on December 03, 2009, 05:05:51 PM I rounded it off I paid the guy $24.50 but wasn't going to try and post the exact.

Title: Re: 2001 New Years Poster Post by: thinkaboutyou on December 20, 2009, 11:07:15 PM I purchased one of the recent ones from gig posters I'm sure it's a reprint though and not an original
Still it was pretty cheap so I didn't care Title: Re: 2001 New Years Poster Post by: Mr. Redman on December 21, 2009, 12:58:59 AM soooooo........................... have you got a pic sorted yet :yes: Soon is the word. Title: Re: 2001 New Years Poster Post by: thinkaboutyou on December 21, 2009, 06:06:25 AM How are we going to know an original any way?
Title: Re: 2001 New Years Poster Post by: Mechanical-Worm on December 27, 2009, 07:51:16 PM I couldn't really get that good of a picture. The cam I have has no flash so it doesn't show up well way to dark. Basically it looks like Troccolis but appears to be on thicker paper do to the fact that it looks as though his needs to be held now to be open and mine doesn't. Both of mine are on heavy quality type paper not like most flyers I have seen.

Title: Re: 2001 New Years Poster Post by: Mechanical-Worm on December 27, 2009, 10:17:52 PM I paid 30 something for the Warfield 2006 limited poster. Price is no matter to me
Title: Re: 2001 New Years Poster Post by: thinkaboutyou on December 28, 2009, 06:49:06 AM You paid 25 bucks for a poster?? ??? ouch! :rofl: that's not much money really two of my UK promo posters cost $150 each but they were Autographed And also my two Melbourne 1993 Subway posters (approx $150 each) Title: Re: 2001 New Years Poster Post by: wadey on December 28, 2009, 03:33:19 PM I couldn't really get that good of a picture.

Both of mine are on heavy quality type paper not like most flyers I have seen. http://www.troccolitm.com/HOBPoster.html?1223926202173 how can you judge the thickness of paper from a pic? fair enough there are objects in the corners to hold it open but that doesnt mean anything could you take a pic maybe during the daytime without needing a flash?.... you do have a daytime where you live dont you :hihi: also the thicker paper doesnt mean its legit though, most promo posters and flyers etc are on the cheaper type paper anyway to reduce cost Title: Re: 2001 New Years Poster Post by: z28 on December 30, 2009, 10:57:14 AM i am noticing on the pic provided by troccoli that his has a white border. that is how mine looks and it is printed on kind of thick paper. i got mine of of ebay right around the time the concert was going to happen (not sure if they started reprinting them that fast). just wondering myself if i have an original due to the white boarder and the thicker paper (probably to be posted on telephone poles and crap). if original, it would be cool to have an idea of what it is worth.
