Caldari Titan Poster Minmatar Titan Poster Gallente Titan Poster Amarr Titan Poster
Lets face it most people would drool apon seening those pictures "myself included". Then you look at the price... $20 for a standard sheet of paper sized Poster. $60 for the large. From what i hear it's a "OMGZORZZ UBERPICS!!!!" quality, but i don't think many people are going to pay 1/3 of year's sub for these uberpics.
I bet if you sold it at a lower quality "easily $20 for large" a lot more people be happy to buy. More sales, more happy customers, ect. I can promise that if a large sized poster on standard-quality paper was availible for $20 i would buy it and i'm sure a whole lot more people would too.
Anyone else think that would be just a smart idea form a buisiness perspective as well as a player perspective? ______________________ [img] Interested? |

What ya say to this Poster? I gladly payed 12000 ISK for it at last years FanFest without even blinking! I guess thatd aprox... 180 dollar? Ye ye! Forgive me! I know Im bragging. But damn! The poster was worth it!
Oh ye. the signatures you see are by Devs attending last years FF! I do miss some signatures though. Like Eris Discorida. sigh

I'm still waiting for CCP to take a page out of Japan's playbook and sell their pictures as wallscrolls.

This aint a thread for you to brag about your own possessions.
Anyway, I agree, those posters are way too expensive. I understand theyre high quality, but no one needs a poster THAT good. Hell, the poster would probably outlive EVE (hopefully EVE never dies.. but you never know) :P A few nice posters using a normal printing method would be sweet.

For that kind of money they better darn well be wallscrolls!
60 bucks for a POSTER?? That thing better be suitable for FRAMING at that price! Heck, They better come IN a frame at that price!
I'm thinking I won't be getting one any time soon.

I've actually wanted to order one or two myself a few times now. But I just can't bring myself to pay THAT much for a poster. Lower the quality, lower the price.
Make it so, make the change.

I used to think the same.
I had my wife buy me the bighuge version of the Apoc. It sat in its tube for about 6mo ... couldn't bring myself to tack it up on the wall. So took it to a professional framer and had it matted and framed. Cost a small fortune, but it's simply incredible and makes a nice "classy" addition to my gamer room... PCs, Guitars, Classic Star Wars Toys, and my Apoc "Poster."

They're nice, but I can print my own for about 50 cents.
Not as good, of course, but it would be nice to have a lower-quality option.

I just recieved my $60 Minmatar poster, and I really love it :)
If I being a little picky, they havnt used fsaa when doing the screenshot, but its not too noticable at more than 4 inches from the picture because they used very high res.
I'm going to go have it framed this weekend, should cost about another $40, but it'll be worth it, it'll last a lot longer than using blu-tak on it, and it'll look quite professional.

Agreed on them needing to be way cheaper, for 60 bucks theyre just not worth it no matter how nice they are (yeah, so the only art I ever bought was during a day trip to Tijuana...). Particularly since CCP's not indicated that its anything more than a high-res screenshot (opposed to a very very detailed 3dsmax render or something), i.e. I could make the $20 one with some glossy paper and the photo printer I got with my laptop. _________________ [SAK] Alumnus--And Proud Of It! -- aka Cpt Bogus Is that my torped sig cloaking your base?

Sorry, EVE Shwag is only for the most hardcore (1337) players in the EVE Community. If you're not willing to surrender $60 for a poster then you're obviously not willing to surrender your soul for the sake of EVE. And let's not kid around... without EVE... what is there to live for?

Paid 260 for the framing job for mine. Got the photograph/pic, when OMG, then got it stuck under museum glass with a good darkwood frame and hung it in my office. |

Besides, when the engine update rolls around, I guess they'll have to redo the posters, making the old ones look like ass.
Yes, ass.

Good, I like firm asses on posters. Boobs are nice too, though.

I feel cheated I took the topic to mean that forum posters were to intelligent boy was I wrong, of course why I thought I qualified in the intelligence factor is anyone's guess.
I should probably delete this and just skulk away. Time for a backup |
