price reduced.....1500$ instead of 1800$

i agree, they can price their pages whatever they want, you accept to pay for it or not (same goes for everyday stuff if you think about it, you overpay for a lot of things) but the problem is that they cheat a lot (without ever really cheating), never explaining simple things - selling cover color guides as original painted covers (the only hint you have is the size of the page, but if you never have bought color guides, you can't know that point) - selling inks over bluelines as original art (for example, on eBay, they only explain that some art thy sell "may" be inks only, but as this sentence is put on every auctions they have, you don't know if the page you're looking at is concerned or not and so on

this is an original art page in excellent condition....it's a double splash page (from JSA all stars issue 2, pages 2 and 3) by TIM SALE (ask yourself how many times you saw double splash pages from sale's best period these past years) .... 1500$ (instead of 1800$) worldwide tracked shipping included

altough dell otto is really good, i always thought he was over rated......about 18 months ago, i met his "official" original art dealer in italy, who back then was selling his covers for about 4000-5000$ i always thought it was a bit expensive, and that the dell otto hype would go down....but about one year ago, his dealer decided to sell his covers directly from 4-5000$ to 15000-20000$ and i thought that he was crazy, that people would think like me and would boycott this sudden 300% rise, that the dealer would understand his mistake once he'd see that nothing sells, but to my surprise, every cover sells pretty quickly .....and it seems the prices will never go down last april in paris (France), he was charging 600 euros (!!!!) for simple commissions (which is completely crazy i think), but i was surprised again when i saw how many people were lining up to get a sketch from him (the line was full everyday and all day long)

i love bisley, and especially his old stuff....some of his recent works are not as good as before, but i Wonder if it's because he's not working on titles as popular as before (batman, lobo, ...) because when you give him a good title, he does awesome work.....just check his hellblazer work a few years ago, the covers and interior art are amazing

and some posts ago, i don't remember who sid the donn' bros would take off the lim covers from their site.....but what are they waiting for, is it that hard to pull off a picture (it takes 2 clicks on CAF)

nuff said !! honestly : - doug = 1st alarm ringing - if you add the donnely bros, well.....that's 2 bad signs in the same place, and 2 famous ones at that so avoid these auctions at all cost
