Andreas- Did you inform those who are bidding that they can get these posters for free by just requesting them? Here is the link to order them: (URL) on the text link "here" about halfway down the page under the itaicised text that says: "Copies of (...) (25 years ago, 25-Apr-00, to lugnet.market.auction)

There are all sorts of ethical issues up for debate here. Perhaps the auction "profit" will go to charity? What will you do with your ten copies? Scott A (...) (25 years ago, 25-Apr-00, to lugnet.market.auction)

Thanks for pointing out the link, Jeremy. Eric McCarthy also found it a couple of days ago as posted here: (URL) was surprised to hear that they might still be available as I received mine quite some time ago.

Does anyone know if they have a way to pay for them if one will not be using them for educational purposes (though I have a couple angles to (...) (25 years ago, 25-Apr-00, to lugnet.market.auction)

Scott- As a member of PNLTC, I was going to give them to some of the members who wanted them in our group. I would keep a set or two of course. :-) I certainly wouldn't sell them if they were for free. It think it's a great poster set. -jeremy (...) (25 years ago, 26-Apr-00, to lugnet.market.auction)

(...) It is not just the fact that they are free which bothered me, but the source of them also. It must cost the UNHCR money to produce and mail these out, so I'd be a little irked if ebay were to become full of them. The posters carry a serious (...)

(...) The auction had 5 posters, and AFAICT the website only has four posters. Assuming that we can get the four from the site, where can we get the 5th poster? If it's not available, it alone should be worth something. Ben Roller (25 years ago, 26-Apr-00, to lugnet.market.auction)
