xjjacobyx is selling a Supertouch shirt I dont know much about. Its hard to tell when it was printed without pics of the tag.
Its a smart looking shirt though. Remember a few years ago when no one gave a shit about supertouch shirts/posters and you could scoop for cheap? Then it became cool to have ST shirts and the prices skyrocketed to like $300 a shirt and posters going for like $200!!! Then that italian bootlegger oversaturated the market(that dude sucks). And now the market is on a bit of a decline.
So who can tell us what is up with this 3x pocket print version? new? old?
[Editors Note]: new. Likely a Thunder Lizard reprint from a few years back.
It is a reprint, T-L for sure, I tried to fly through these listings to get them up. Let the shit storm commence.
Why no love for the Italian bootlegger? I tried to order a particular shirt, never got it as it got ‘lost in the mail’ so he sent me two wack ass shirts of bands I didn’t like in exchange. Still see OG shirt I want on his ebay post all the time. Why he didn’t send me the more ‘popular’ one I requested is beyond me. Guess I already answered my own question.
dont get me wrong. I wasnt trying to come down on you or your postings. Just trying to get more info to educate myself mainly :)
I think you did, Matt, I think you did!
JBil, no man, I didn’t take it that way, I just felt bad, didn’t want people to think that it was deceptive (i.e., the Judge shirt) on my part, more like laziness. :)
if bootlegs deflate the prices of original shirts, let’s have more of them. the fact that shirts grab prices in the three digit region makes hardcore look like a joke.
Whole lotta whining about bootlegs on here. As long as the seller isn’t pushing it as OG, why do you guys get such a hard on over it? Is it because Casali couldve made a down payment on a house instead of buying all those Wishingwell dish rags he scooped up?
I happily challenge you to find a boot we’ve posted and whined about where the auction overtly mentioned that fact (and I mean legitimately whined about it being a boot, not slammed it because it was ugly or something. 9 times out of 10 we’re just as happy to see a good looking boot as anyone else).
Take a look at any of that Italian sellers auctions; he always says the shirts are screen printed and stored in a smoke free area, but that’s pretty vague and easy for people to misunderstand. The fact that his shirts are bootlegs isn’t even the reason they were posted, it was because people often pay $20-40 bucks for shirts that he just reprints and posts up again.
Casali already has a house. And a very nice one, at that.
Peace.
also we dont whine about legit reproductions where the bands get a cut of the money like Thunder Lizard. That dude did it right. He went out and found old band members got thier permission and gave them a cut. Fully backed.
