I was checking out these posters looking to maybe buy one or two but then i saw the prices for many of them. http://www.redlightrunner.com/appleads.html

I know they're nice and all, but $250 seems a bit much.

got them all on ebay. mint condition. about $5-$10 each.


also look at
http://www.thinkdifferentposters.com/

all of redlight's stuff is over priced. so look elsewhere.

Yeah, I've been to that site, too, and I couldn't believe the prices.

touchy subject for me. i bought the first run of posters, but pretty much destroyed them in hanging. so when i saw redlightrunner's prices, i about shot myself. then i realized that they have become scalpers... they were a nice company to fill the vacancy left by appledesign, but now they're just overrated.

and for those of you wondering about *how* much overpriced they are... i bought my watch (blue-rim, contemporary design, i think it's the OS 8 watch) on ebay for $25 including shipping about a year and a half ago, and the last i saw they had it listed for something like $200... now they don't even seem to have it anymore...

total ripoff. and i do wish they'd quit sending me spam.

i've been wanting to start collecting TD posters and hanging em on my wall, but the cheapest i can find on ebay is like 20 bucks each. and that's for the 11x17 inch posters. i really want the gandhi, jim henson, bob dylan, and possibly either feynman or watson. i would love to buy soem off ebay for 10 bucks each, so i'll keep lookin. 🙂

also, i think one of the reasons that RLR's prices are really high is because 1) those are 24x36, which generally go for higher due to rarity and size (duh) and 2) they're all in mint condition

the flik the ant poster is really nice, but it's not for sale. the dalai lama is also cool, but not worth it for 500 bucks. 🙄

I have 10 of them. A couple of months ago I saw the prices on redlightrunner. I couldn't believe my eyes. They were given out for free some years ago at a appleconvention in Utrecht, The Netherlands.

Wanna buy one? 😉 😉
