I figure it was a few hours work. I'm sorry you don't think it looks like it.

As I said, "I don't know how much you paid for the original ad or what you had to go through to possess it..." I was simply refering to the time spent (after all the pieces were in one place) assembling the item.

Of course, it was a bit rash of me to post just how long I thought you might have spent on the piece. I apologize. I never realized that burlap would be so difficult to cut, that you would buy a stack of about 30 vintage mags for 10 or 15 bucks & go through every page, that you would transport glass dangling from your bike's handlebars, or that you would take 6 months pondering what to do.

I guess I should have considered the cost of the clip frame too.

I still think that $14.95 is too much for the item (kudos if you sell it though!), & that you'd yield a higher return if you sold a few of the same items for less money.

I also think that the title of this topic:

"My Newest Ebay Item - Vintage Paul Marshall Mug Ad"

is rather misleading.

But, I do appreciate your artistry & look forward to any upcoming works you may wish to share w/ us!
