To get it before Halloween. The movie is THE horror film this year. I had everything ready including the coveralls and even boots. But I sent my mask to get rehauled rather than wear it at our annual party. I think a lot of the increased prices also reflect the rehauled paint jobs. This way you don’t buy your mask, ship to someone who fixes them, wait for thrm to be shipped back etc. But a lot are just scammers using others work to sell their cheap rehauls which in the long run will flake paint or be inaccurate. Just watch.
I was not supposed to get mine from tots until November but they must be working hard because I received few day ago unexpectedly. I didn’t need it for Halloween so I was not in a rush but I do the the $60 mask is selling for $120 on eBay with no rehaul. I guess if you have to have it by Halloween and have the money then have no choice but to spend the extra Money.
Most artists seem to be charging about $200.00 to rehaul them its just getting locating the artist directly to get them redone, I sent mine to Eric Hamilton who charged $100.00 shipped to redo it and return it to Canada, I believe if you are in the U.S he charges $85.00 which includes the return shipping.
Yeah i agree but also those people are silly for paying that much for a mask. I paid $60 for mine then $65 to get it rehauled and mine looks better than a lot of the masks being sold for $4k+
It’s gonna be hard to avoid JC lol
I don’t understand how you would want to avoid the sellers. The mask is worth what people are willing to spend for it.
Do I have to feel guilty cause I put a 1$ starting bid auction that ended up to 3K ?
Yeah some of those are just fake auctions. But a lot are also scammers using pictures of rehauls done by the quality guys to push their own versions done with dollar store paint that will flake within weeks and ruin the latex. I do think it is just the convenience factor. If you wanted one early you preordered. If you missed preorders you hit up your local spirit or party city etc. If you just saw Halloween 2018 and think you want to be Myers now a week later for your party, you are SoL unless you’re willing to pay.
You don’t have to feel guilty, I just wouldn’t be able to have that on my conscious. I was going to purchase that copy from Jackson for way less than $450 and I was happy you got it. It was your grail for a week, and then on eBay with all this bold text, 1 of 1, perfect movie mask, etc. It’s not a secret people are putting these masks on eBay knowing how much people are paying. You don’t need to explain yourself to anybody, but I would’ve had more respect to just allow somebody who wanted it to get it at a fair price.
And yeah I personally am avoiding people selling at crazy prices. JC is irrelevant, because just like Jackson the artists sold their copies at a fair price. It was the buyers of the masks who made profit off of their work, which to me doesn’t seem right. Again, congrats on your $3,000 but it would’ve been nice to see somebody who actually wanted the mask end up with it without spending a used car on it.
I like the tots masks just the way they are. For a 60 dollar mask they are pretty solid imo. It’s crazy to pay some of these prices to have them rehauled.
I am the person who purchased Loris mask! It is my absolute grail and I am so thankful Loris sold it. In this hobby you have to sell pieces that you love sometimes to get other pieces. With the new movie Halloween is hot. Jc, Jackson Rupert, Freddy all these guys are incredible artist and with the rarity of some of these rehauls if you want one you are going to have to pay for it. I fell in love with Jackson copy and I think I got a steal! Loris thank you mate for selling it! I’m also a huge fan of your channel.
