Uber-rare and Beautiful Super Metroid LE Poster #1904/2000 Plz Lock!
ALL DONE! THANK YOU, NA COMMUNITY!
Yup. Some of you guys probably caught my price check thread for this about a week ago. The responses indicated that the interest is definitely there, so here you have it: my sexy Super Metroid poster from the NP catalog of winter 1993/1994:
Dimensions are roughly 20.5" on the short side and 28.5" on the long side
And below you have a shot of the numbering and SAMUS ARAN'S FRIGGIN SIGNATURE in the lower right corner
High bid is $350.00 by David.k! Holy moly!
Now, on to the nitty gritty details:
First, this poster was purchased by me when I was a wee lad of 9 years. It's been in a frame for every day since then, other than the last few days it spent in a tube getting shipped to me. It's in phenomenal condition, with no pinholes or anything like that. Oh...and it glows in the dark. How cool is that?!
Second, I'm ONLY listing this poster here out of respect to the community of true collectors to be found here. Ebay can go suck an egg. I've never seen this print for sale anywhere, so snag it now
Third, unless I know you and trust you from prior deals on other sites, you will be paying first, hopefully via gifted Paypal. I've been active on GameTZ for over 10 years and have 657 completed deals as of today, plus 85 on Ebay, 59 on Goozex and 31 on Cheapassgamer. I'm happy to link you to my accounts (username is TahoeMax for all except Ebay), send you emails from those accounts, or whatever you need to feel comfortable. Bottom line is that I do this a lot and hope you understand that I'm not out to screw you.
Fourth, shipping is on me via insured Priority Mail
Fifth, 5% of the final sale price will be donated to the site for bringing all of us together.
Finally, if you're bidding, post your bid here. This isn't Oz and there aren't going to be any curtains to hide behind. This creates transparency on both ends, and I like transparency.
That aside, feel free to ask if you have questions, need more pictures, or anything else. Also, let me know if I've screwed anything up in formatting the auction or am breaking a rule. I'm not very active here and don't know all the ropes yet.
Good luck, ladies and gents!

It's a nice poster, but really? You don't need to get excited by Samus Aran's signature, she's a fictional character, some fat ugly guy probably wrote it.
You really couldn't detect the mock excitement there? Really? I'm sorry...

Because you can REALLLY detect sarcasm in text form.
High bid is $150.00 from raregamergirl

if raregamergirl wants this, it appears she needs to post here.
In the meantime...I mean...technically I guess there's no bid. If people would like to bid less than $150, they're more than welcome to do so. Part of transparency is also not wanting to waste peoples' time, though, and I'd like to strongly suggest that such bids might be a waste of time

I could see this doing some good money on the evilbay if the winner doesnt keep it. Good Luck on the sale Sir!
I could see that, too. I'm selling it here with STRONG hopes that I don't see it for sale there in two weeks. If someone wants it as an investment that they can enjoy in the meantime, that's fine...but if someone flips it as soon as they get it, I'll be very disappointed. I like money just as much as the next guy, but I think that some things don't necessarily belong with the guy who has the fattest wallet.
Seriously...anyone who wants this to resell should not bid. We're on the honor system here...so just don't.
That being said, I know someone on NA makes reproductions, I forget who.
(I need to start keeping track of people for this kind of thing.)
If they were to make a cheap repro, I'd snag one.
How is that a Super Metroid poster when that is the cover art from Metroid II..
It's different though. Lighting is different, more stars in the sky, and Samus's image is flipped.
$175, anyone who has been to my store knows how much I love these types of items
You must have an awesome store, then. Those are a dying breed, sadly. I miss the good old days

I don't think that you'll have to worry about someone flipping it. There are so many Metroid fans out there that would love something like this, I couldn't possibly see them selling it afterwards.
VGM out...
Wow nice poster. And yeah I doubt whoever buys this is gonna flip it.
Agree ^^.
KET out...
by the way, when does the bidding end for this?
It's in the auction subtitle: This Sunday at 8pm NA Time...which is east coast time here in the states. Not sure where in Canada you are.
upping my bid... $250
