    I'm interested in buying a lithograph for a $100 but before I shell out my hard earned cash... I gotta ask you, the board members.

    Are these guys good to go? Or avoid like plague?

    Any experiences? Any advice is appreciated.

    Thanks for your time.

    Spex.

    They do have a "Cyberstore" hidden in that jumble of text and ads called a website.

    I sure would like some of those posters to scan and make some awesome backgrounds... but I personally would not order blindly from them. Just remember how cheap online store software can bring headaches (cough, TFCC credit card info stolen cough).

    Try e-mailing some generic questions and see how fast and thoroughly they respond. If it takes them forever or you don't like their answers you know to move on.

    They used to be associated with TFW2005, I think, but that was about a decade ago, in the heyday of Dreamwave. I think their site hasn't been overhauled since then.

    Thanks for the insight. I actually don't feel good ordering from that site now. Just a gut feeling for some reason. That jumble of ads all over the place can't be a good sign.

    Yes, do not buy! I ordered something there back in... I think '07 or '08. Had to file a claim with my CC company to get money back because I never received what I ordered (I think a giant litho?).

    Anyways, avoid avoid avoid!

    Yikes. They're taking this evil "Decepticon Matrix" theme too far. I've heard enough. Thank you for the advice.

    Avoiding like the plague.
