I'm not a lawyer, but even if it were fair use, selling it probably kills off any chance of that.

The chances of anyone with a legitimate claim the the intellectual properties he is using caring about this is nil. It doesn't even matter if it is legal or not, because nothing will ever come of it.

I think deep down Chris knows whats really for sale here, and that is the Chris-Chan persona. No one wants a magic marker drawing of some animals, but something made by someone infamous who became infamous for making magic marker drawings of animals. Certainly no one can go after him claiming he's not really Chris Chan.

Fairly sure it's a ween bid... Hell, the auction might not actually conclude--there's a chance that eBay might shut down the auction themselves.

You know, I've said before that Chris was passing up a potential gold mine by not selling original art or video shout-outs on eBay. I know some may say that the novelty may die out fast, but at least Chris is actually making some use out of his Internet Infamy, however fleeting it may be.

I'm just curious to see how Chris will manage to take this tiny fragment of positive and turn it around into a disaster or some form of ingratitude. He has a real knack for ruining everything good.




What??

(looks over text of auction)

Sharty: "If NOT sold for the Buy It Now Price, do not expect full care; it may become folded; crease danger!"

godddammitsomuch, Chris! Doesn't he have any cardboard that he can use? What about carefully rolling it up and mailing it in a mailing tube?
Even in this one extremely rare moment of him doing something good, and he still could not resist the urge to make greedy demands and threats.

How does Chris manage to utterly ruin each and every single good thing in his life? HOW???

The thing is, people care so little about Chris no one's going to bother. A normal person would probably be slammed by lawsuits after all the shit he has pulled. But Chris... Chris just doesn't matter. He is invisible.

Maybe? I had a friend selling (high quality) MLP and Legend of Zelda themed hats on Etsy for a good while. Made a couple grand (over a large span of time) and was really small-time. Ended up getting a cease and desist letter, spooked him good so he quit. Could easily see that happening to Chris.

I have a several years of experience on ebay and can tell that the highest legitimate bid for this piece is $50 and it will probably drop to $30 if the this other bidder is also a phony.

$50 is good enough price for this shitty art, and fatso should be proud of making such money with it. If my English to atismu dictionary is right he just tries to warn that if the bid falls under 100 buy it now price he will just put the drawing in and envelope(maybe with a piece of cardboard.) and send it through mail and let it to the handling of USPS. However if you buy it now or surpassed the 100 he will put it on a frame making it safer for shipping handling. What kind of frame is anyone guess but being CWC I bet for the cheapest he can find.

I can see this getting pulled by eBay once :ween: bids push it to over $9000. Chris should just relist it with only a Buy It Now of $100.

Wow, I read the title of the thread and I thought I needed glasses or something. Chris selling his "artwork" for $100 at a Buy it Now? Trying to sell his used porn collection for $1000 is one thing, but this, this is just...I don't even....

Oh and saying/implying you'll damage the artwork if it isn't bought for the higher price isn't going to win you any favor with potential buyers.

And to the weens, good job to whoever ends up being the highest bidder, since I bet you'll be wasting your parents' credit card on shitty artwork. All just so you could show what a big bad troll you are. I am dissapoint.

You are aware there is no legal binding to actually pay the highest bid on eBay. It's not linked to your credit card number or anything like that. You have to manually send whoever the seller is the money, usually though Paypal. Whatever ween "wins" the action is likely just going to fuck off afterwards, never sending OPL a single penny, much less $200+. It's the lowest of low effort trolling.

It is a fairly shitty thing to do as well if you asked me. It is one thing to mock Chris or poke the bear, but when you actively get in the way of him achieving whatever limited success he is capable of it is a different story.

Chris can just go down the line offering second chance sales to the other people who bid until he gets to a legit one. I would suspect he'll still make good money for 20 minutes of work by the time he hits one.

The real drama will come during ebay's waiting period while the top bidding ween is given a grace period before Chris can file a non-paying bidder report. I can imagine that will be a time of much gnashing of teeth and NOW NOW NOW!

As an avid eBay user, I just thought I'd throw my two cents in (also first post, Whoo!)

eBay's T&Cs state that a bid, or BIN purchase, is indeed legally binding. I've heard of cases where sellers have taken buyers to court over unpaid items and won. However, that all depends on whether the seller can be bothered or has the resources/knowledge to do so. I will say with 100% certainty that Chris would never take it that far. But, y'know, he could. But Sonichu being a huge copyright infringement might muddy those waters.

I doubt his infringement on Sega/Nintendo would matter overall though, as people sell fan made things on eBay all the time *cough*mlpplushies*cough*

I have been trying to figure out why this is a more attractive piece of artwork than usual for Chris. I think it is because it is black and white, and hiding the magic markers.

When he was making comic pages, it was usually with a set number of pages by a certain deadline to get back his playstation account or prevent some online heartsweet from leaving him, so of course he did a rush job on those.

For this, he only had to do one. He is testing the waters to see if theres any money here, so its reasonable to believe that even Chris tried a little harder than your average Sonichu page on this one.

Man, I have been saying for sometime now that Chris needed a manager and should be recording voice mail greetings and producing Sonichu originals for purchase. I like Chris he has gave me a lot of entertainment over the years and as an artist it is nice to be appreciated. I hope people don't fuck this up for him but I know they will. He should be pumping out hand drawn sonichu personalized with whatever a client wants for $60. That being said his current ebay listing in my opinion is worth no more than $300. Why so high......because it is a first for Chris. Chris is going to be remembered a lot longer than any of us.
