I was thinking perhaps we should come up with a
way to inform
those who wish to take
advantage of Sergio's scetches. Perhaps
I like to suggest to the Groop that we watch eBay and when we
see people auctioning off signatures/free scetches from Sergio
that
we all email the person with a polite explaination of what
they are doing
and how it ruins something that someone has done unselflish
and
dishonors the many fans of Groo.
I think if we are polite in our emails and if we
got say, 10-20 of us
to email polite emails
pointing to the person what they are doing
and such, it might prevent people from doing this and it might
make
a difference. I think we just need to avoid flaming the person
with
hate and anger but letting them know what they are doing is
very
bad ettiquette and very insulting.

Okay.. I've tracked down Garys Ebay
culprit.
I've even sent him an email. I've seen this person on Ebay
before.
I think it would be great if others would send him their
opinions. After all his email is open to the public via
Ebay.
Here's what I've sent
him.

I'm rather
curious as to why you'd be selling this for $10?
I mean, they're free
at the San Diego Comic Con, and Sergio is always kind enough to
autograph just about anything for anyone.
In fact, the sad thing is..
because of things of this nature, Sergio will no longer do doodles in
his so called 'Fans' sketchbooks... because some of his so called 'Fans'
turn around and sell them profit.
Selling comic books is one thing.
Selling original art is another. Both of these are acceptable. But
selling something that was free and that Sergio autographed for you...
that is something altogether entirely different.
Just voicing my
opinion... don't be bothered by it too
much.
