Rainbowhigh, I would describe the original painting as unique, I would describe the art as unique, I would not describe the physical reproduction of it that I purchased as "unique". I would not own a unique copy of the Mona Lisa if I bought a postcard at the Louvre. Ripley's "photography" may be unique but what is for sale on ebay is not.

The charity has gotten their money already.

Your friend is not a she but is selling it on Ebay under the name Pachagirl1969? Tranny? Crossdresser? What?

Seriously, it lost any value it might have had when it was opened and the photos developed unless your friend thinks there is a huge market for photos of Alice Ripley's knees on the subway. It's not even really signed or autographed unless Alice's typical autograph is her printing her name in big block letters.

I've decided to lower my offer from $2 to $1. Considering the item on Ebay, despite all the publicity we've been kind enough to provide on here has gotten exactly ZERO bids, I'd strongly advise your friend to take it. And please stop trying to spin the definition of "paying it forward" or "unique". You just sound silly.

While I still consider Rainbowhigh a crook, Alice Ripley does in fact 'sign' her name in bubble letters...

Tranny, yes.

And thank you for the publicity for the item. You'll be thinking about it for ages now, despite clearly not being able to afford it. You sound silly yourself revealing your financial status.

Girl, I've got fifty bucks in cash right in my wallet and I'd rather spend it on fifty lotto tickets than some scrap plastic with a signature on it.

But it's unique! Lotto is not unique

Emily, thanks. Didn't know she signed her name that way. I guess it makes her autograph...uhhh...unique.

Rainbow, you are assuming my assessment of the worth of this item is the same as my financial status. Bad job by you. And I'm happy to bump the thread again and get it even more publicity as it won't change the number of bidders this non-collectible will get...ZERO!

Got ya to look and continuously add to the thread. And relisting is free.

A chimpanzee riding a unicycle in a tux and top hat juggling 3 balls and tossing confetti into the air will get me to look and continuously add to the thread. Doesn't mean anyone is going to shell out 50 bucks for that either. Have a great evening!
