    How about getting back to the topic in hand now?? I suggest that any other issues between members here should probably be taken up away from posts on the forum.

    I was trying to stop them but well, they continued. That's not what this board is for.

    That said, these squabbles happen far too frequently for most of us.

    Raw fact is that " a price is just a price" -  something two consenting adults agree on.

    Its certainly true that many of us have worked hard in the past to make AJB different - a community, where sharing of information, "spoils" and in some cases collaborations, was indeed the norm. 

    That has somewhat disappointingly led to a feeling of entitlement. The idea that everything should be given away to the "needy". And if not for free, then some semblance of "cost" should be the tariff.
    Any attempt to allow market forces into these decisions is viewed as profiteering and anti-social(ist).

    Sound familiar?..... Yep politics pollutes....   8-)

    To my mind, mr zareba has been through the full cycle and come out clean. He has shared his work with many (often for free, but more often for a token cost that won't require anyone to re-mortgage).

    He works hard To research off the shelf items to add to the knowledge base of the community. He even obtains items to re-sell (yes forgive the word) to others, taking a risk that they won't pay, they will mess him around, or worse, that there will be a re-run and his customers would prefer to wait for the new version with skyfall written on a sticky label.

    As  no one else seemed willing to put this straight I felt compelled.

    Btw my opinion is free should anyone desire to collect it. :o

    Cheers Paul

    I have ... that's wrong making other people pay that on this forum ...

    Damn that's beginning to be pathetic, can you read in English?? Because I wrote a few times, it's NOT ME who makes the prices so freaking high. I sold one shirt, yes, FOR BILLIONS OF DOLLARS because the simple fact is - I didn't wanted to give it away. Finally the buyer gave a price so high that I could buy another Skyfall related item so I decided to sell it. I'm tired of your complains about me being a "bad guy" selling worthless shirts for Aston Martin prices, if you don't like it, firstly: don't buy it, secondly: stop writing about it. How the hell I already found 5, respected ajb007 members (or better saying they found me) who won the shirts mostly in tough biddings? It's just something I hate, you're writing that I'm making harm to ajb007, let's make it clear: through about 3 years on this board I managed to do many thinks for this forum, one wallpaper is even on jamesbondlifestyle.com that I made I believe. Please - do SOMETHING for this board you will consider as GOOD. Anything. After that let me know. Because you're behaving like a standard citizen criticizing politicians when one has no knowledge about how to rule a country. And just to help - posting eBay links is hardly helping because anyone can open that site and find something.

    Now the roast will continue I believe but really, do what you want, I don't give a damn anymore.

    I have to jump in to defend MrZareba too on this one, everyone wants an enjoying death shirt and they are very very rare for anyone to find and under most circumstance people do sell stuff at cost on here but MrZareba was lucky enough to find some and sold them to other members on the forum.

    But saying that people sell Tom ford ties for 500 to 900 dollars sometimes more and scarfs for 900 to 1200 ish. I know I have bought some off forum member for that and it's items I would not otherwise have had!

    Simply supply and demand and on most occasions we do sell at cost but sometimes an item has so many people looking for it it commands a certain price.

    To everyone moaning, if MrZareba had not found them, mantis would not be able to have made steps to get a reissue or replica of these made for all.

    So in turn he is still helping the bond community :)

    lol @ "died of death."

    I don't understand why everyone's so angry about the prices. I'm sure that more than a few AJB-ers have tried to snake a few extra dollars out of people on Ebay. Let the guy make his profit.
  • WardWard Maryland/LondonPosts: 195MI6 Agent
    David,
    do you have a ballpark idea of when the shirts would (ideally) be ready? I'm curious if there's any chance of having these replicas for the coming summer. -{
  • drugtestdrugtest Posts: 116MI6 Agent
    Yeah, I'm going to be on a beach in Mexico in 8 days, can I get mine by then??? :D
  • GMalveziGMalvezi Posts: 1MI6 Agent
    pardon me,but where can i found one shirt like this to buy? i searched on ebay but i cant find :( thanks
  • rebentonrebenton Birmingham ALPosts: 276MI6 Agent
    You and this entire board. If you're very lucky you can find one, but expect to pay upwards of $300 for it.

    sorry if that's bad news for you.

    Should have replicas at some point one day.
