I would say one is at least honest about what they are selling... not deceptive
I look at it this way... a bum could have 2 signs
1) need money for food
2) need money for drugs or alcohol or cigarettes
You would be naive to think the money you gave was going for food but maybe it would make you feel better

Are you going to spend a few hundred dollars framing something that's barely worth the paper it's printed on?

True but you could get an Ikea frame for £20 or so.

Most prints I've bought have been non-standard sizes. I suppose you could always get a larger frame and cut a mat (most likely with an uneven border), but personally I think that would look like crap.

Personally I dont care whether he is selling them to fund a crack habit or put food on the table, a repro is still a knock off. I just dont get why people think one is acceptable and one isnt.

Personally, I don't think either is acceptable. But one is worse than the other. Telling someone you're selling them a knockoff isn't as bad as selling a knockoff as a legitimate print (or letting them assume it's original as the case may be).
