Oversized OS Posters ?
« on: December 26, 2010, 09:06:48 PM »
Has anyone seen or heard of these? Appearently they are direct from the Topps Vault, an oversized poster of the OS art.

There's also Slopicana and a few more. Over my current budget, but seems pretty cool.

This dude is selling a lot of OS unfolded posters and wacky proofs. Guess he/she worked there or something. I also saw an original ad painting.

nah, this guy didn't work for toops. These were all sold by toppsvault on eBay a few years back and now they are all being resold for 2x-10x their original selling price. Some of it is cool, like unfolded posters, but a lot of it is trash ( the cyan, magenta, yellow proofs)

This guys prices have been insane and he keeps relisting and relisting at the same prices.  I wonder if he's sold anything at those #'s.

As far as I know, these are nothing more than unfolded posters that would come from the yellow poster packs.  Yellow poster pack posters are slightly larger than the blue pack posters.  These sold for like $200 when there were folks were competing with each other trying to complete sets of the unfolded posters.

He has several items I would be interested in but the prices are ridiculous.

Those single colored proofs are not appealing to me either.

I went back through 6 pages of feedback left and did not see 1 Wacky item.

I always wanted to ask about those yellow poster packs. How did an unfolded poster get into a pack?

Yea that's right..I have a couple of these I won for under $200...and they are really nice unfolded...this guy, or whoever he is selling for, paid way too much for these even back then, as I remember, and is now trying to catch a sucker by selling these at insane prices...I did see that he has sold some of his stuff...but most are just relisted over and over and over....
