ebay

 

everyone is guilty of copping cans off e-bay from time to time,no big deal i do it also, but i really believe that the art digging is being overlooked by a couple of rich kids who can afford to buy collections... where is the art in that... that means that any fuckface w/ a credit card can buy a collection, or for that matter mommy and daddy could buy one for them... this doesn't go for all of y'all, (actually far from it) but remember tearing thru packs of baseball cards trng to find griffey jr. rookies, or even clemente's and shit, all u could afford was like maybe 2-3 packs a week but their was always that little fucker whose mommy and daddy went out and just straight up bought him that card that you spent your whole years allowance and pay from odd jobs on rippingup packs for that bitch... the day you found it u were in 7th heaven and the value u put on it was far more than anything the beckett price guide said... have fun w/ this shit... go dig get creative and trade up...don't be that little rich kid... i am gonna go bid now...peace... and please dont confuse what i'm saying ebay is dope but give shit a try before u give up and buy it...whatevers dont mind me i am just ranting probably cause i am a broke fuck who cant afford e-bay's astronomical prices... but i am glad cause when i get a dope can i value it more... peace out fellas!!!!!!!

i know that this question has been asked before, i dont think its ever been answered though. pricing? i know its all based on how much the person likes that can, but can you guys give me somewhat of a round about idea of prices?

bro don't even try i used to wonder about that also... but you answered yourself... if u watchmarket trends it seems that scotties are thru the roof but hat happens when all the guys paying hundreds of dollars for them get all they want the price will drop... collect for personal value not monetary... i know explaing this shit to your folks or friends who cant comprehend the collecting of paint cans new and used it is easy to explain thru monetary value cause it easy to grasp... but collect for delph fuck money ... money fucks everything up.... peace

i enjoy looking at ebay, but thats it. when i hit the jackpot almost a year ago , that was the best feeling in the world. getting shit when youre on the hunt is 10000 times better than having it handed to you.

watermelon=hot pink

hosta leaf=avocado

georgia cay=bonfire

bahama sea=teal blue

ballet slipper=pink pastel

tuscan sunset=brick [cap looks the same as georgia clay, but the color is real close to brick.]

its just as good as the rest of krylon. they went back to the old style can kinda, they got rid of the box around the 3d balls. it looks alot better. give me a few days and i'll get flics up. if you have hobby lobby where you live go check it out, its the only place i've seen with it. a few cans at wall mart are in the new cans also. i forgot one color, tomatoe looks like sunset orange. keep your eyes peeled at the paint store near you. peace, zewlives...:king:

I know there out there else where (walmart,kmart,micheals...) but they havent made it into my city and im tired of driving so im just gonna wait till the end of january.... shit should be SUPER ill though judging by the color names...

krylon finally stepped up, maybe we will start collecting the silhouetted 5 balls now, if they change it back... i just hope the paint is thick... SATINS!!!!!!!!!

zew what does mimosa and equestrian look like

these names are off the hook woven tapestry???

tidepool? what do these look like...

 

celery sounds dope, frost grape (icy grape??), italian olive, watermellon, hyacinth, these all sound dope...

-do y'all think this in response to the demand for foreign paint w/ wide color selection, i mean Krylon has their graffiti hurts campaign and all but they gotta realize that they have a market here maybe they should go for the aerosol art campaign like belton... cant wait for whisper whites also... i am thinking out loud now...peace peace

lime green

 

by the way, that smiling visage is pushing a cart full of special order Lime Green Industrial Tremco/Tremclad. It's made with minimal info on the paper labels, specifically for some company that didn't use it. good luck finding it, cause it's cheaper than ANY other kind of Lime and thick as fuck.

 

 

OSCAR.. hit me up for trades on that DULL ALUM!

i don't have a camera or i'd post, but i found a wierd can at Grampy's

it's a 6.5 oz can of rusto "stops rust" drippy letters in the circle logo, with "Auto Primer" in fancy letters above the rusto symbol, with "white primer" and the number printed 3 times on the cap. looks kind of old.

 

and a 5 1/2 oz can of tempo auto paint with a metal cap, paper label.

 

any idea what i'm talking about?
