yer people who work i feel so sorry
Interesting social conundrum isn't it?
With rising unemployment those who have no job can afford the time to queue to buy. They can't afford to buy to keep however. So they buy to sell.
Meanwhile those of us with jobs can't afford to spend the time to queue. We can afford to buy to keep however.
Can we afford the inflated prices of those with no job? Not I.
Meanwhile those with no job will sell the art. They now have no job but do have money. They no longer need to get a job.
Am I wrong in suggesting that BRP is causing the unemployment in this country?
(tongue in cheek to an extent)

Fingers crossed BRP manage to ruin a couple of these, get the details and cancel the orders. Maybe even a few more left for the lucky lottery winners!

If you can buy something and legally sell it the for triple the price then is it really suprising that 14 are on ebay, I am suprised there are not more. The only way to stop it is to charge more at source for the print.

Sadly true, and the crux of the problem! Somewhere in BRPs TandC they say that they dont like people selling the prints before they have even received it themselves. On that grounds these orders should be cancelled! Hopefully then a few more can make it onto walls at cost prices.
Are the real fans being priced out of this entirely?

yes loads sold to flippers, thats life. in the old credit crunch there no reason why someone wouldnt want to make 3 times their money for 8 hours work..
ill leave you with this: its what happens in retail design when there is fuck all to do. THE CREDIT CRUNCH MONSTER

Ebay will send them a email with the sellers name,address and phone number.
Then retract the bid(entered wrong amount).
In the case of BIN price, just buy the print, then email the seller telling them that you are BRP and the order has been cancelled.
BRP won`t have to pay for something the seller doe`s not have!
Hope this help`s Mike if your reading this!
Cancel the order,refund the monie`s paid and relist on the BRP website for some one else !

What puzzles me about Nick's prices on ebay is the difference between the TMA series and other prints. Is there a hype around these which could fade away long term?
You can get a Ratatouille (ed. 95) for ยฃ550! Much nicer IMO.
