They upgraded my order to the framed. Shipping to Ontario is $40.

On the Ebay post, I see the flipper is listing the framed for $232. Hardly seems worth putting it up.

I don't really see the point of the perpetual witch hunt towards flipper. In this hobby, people buy and resell since the dawn of time. A lot of old time collectors literally made their collection at NO COST simply by buying and reselling their pieces for a profit once they were in hand.
I know, it's not a fair practice and everything... still, I don't understand why almost any thread regarding a low ES piece / sought after piece should turn into this.

I'm not hunting. I'm happy there's one. I want to know what the market value is on these prints.

Plus $25 for shipping. Yes, I don't think it's much of a "flip". Still though its early and the bids may raise once people see the print hung on the wall, next to the statue.

Anyone have an answer to this? I am contacting Sideshow later today.

Yes, we will let people know in advance when a new print will be available for order and not just place them up at a random day/time. More than likely that notification will come from the weekly newsletter and also updated on the preview page(s).

I don't either. I thought really hard about getting another company's latest statue and flipping it. Guaranteed would have mad at least a $200 profit. Didn't do it. Honestly, didn't want the hassle.
