I can't tell if you're talking about the shirts left or the screen's left. In my opinion the blue side looks great but the red could perhaps use some aligning. Is that what you're pointing out?

Screen left. its as if the blue corner has a sliver missing from it.
He labeled Matthew's items as "Patel's Shirt/Jacket" or something like it, and had a Todd Ingram shirt that he didn't even label at all, so I doubt he even saw the film. Not that it REALLY matters in the end, but I felt like he was trying to drum up a reason for people to buy from a "fan to fan" in his vids and stuff and he really wasn't.
Unrelatedly, the woman who just posted a few SP items (and had a Facebook gallery of all the stuff she has, and who sold the stuntman hat earlier) is wanting quite a bit of money for the stuff she's going to be selling here shortly. I suspect she was watching Guy #1's auctions, because she's going to be listing her Clash at the Demonhead shirt with a STARTING BID of $90.
I wanted Scott's hat really badly and tried to negotiate $90-$100 for it, since the last auction went for that and the hat's a stunt hat, but she sounds like she's looking for $200-$300 alone for it.
I know she's listed some stuff cheaply in the past, but I think she's "gotten wise" and expects a huge killing from the next round of props, after Matthew's jacket/shirt went for $700 (which she also mentioned to me, so she's privy to it).
It drives me mad that it's impossible for true fans/collectors to get their hands on this stuff first hand. I guess people have to make money where they can, but I can't even fathom the net profits these people are making. It has to be 250%+.

It's been quite hard to get any ideas about prices on this new womans items, I asked if she had any rough estimates as being from the UK I'd have to also budget international postage but she keeps saying she doesn't know and is looking to fans to determine the value. Similarly I also get the impression she regrets selling the other hat so cheap, I said I'd be interested at a similar price to the other but I couldn't justify paying more for a stunt hat which must of had less than 5 mins screen time. She has got some really nice items but I hope she doesn't get the wrong idea and massively over price them. In one reply she mentioned how she knew Scott Pilrim was a cult film with several "mega fans" interested so I guess we'll have to wait until the auctions to see if this pushes the price up.

Let's hope so. I would like to get at least one piece so I can frame it or make a display or something. I just don't know if I should put low bids in on multiple items or put all my effort into one item. I don't even know which item I would specifically do that for 
Also ender mentioned that she sold a stunt hat previously. While it's true the original auction was for a stunt hat the facebook page says the buyer didn't want a stunt version so she swapped it for the non stunt version.

I got the zero * shirt from hot topic not the site but i went in store asked "do you guys have the smashing pumpkins zero ringer shirt?" they showed me it straight away. Now it does say the smashing pumpkins on the back like the sp heart one you can buy online but i don't really care it is really accurate. will post pics.

Pics aren't necessary because they've already been posted on an earlier page.
On another topic, anyone else think those lady's prices are a little overpriced? Especially that hat..

It looks a little squeezed on the bottom and left side. It's subtle and it may just be me... take a look at this:

I'm not seeing what you're trying to point out there.
Edit: I do actually see what you did. I've tried to keep my edges even. Below is a shirt reflecting a few minor tweaks, as well as the image I uploaded to create it. Does the pinching look like a result of the shirt's view or do I need to tweak the source?

I drew a square around the artwork for clarity. Notice how the top edge is angled downward and the left and right sides tilt in toward the middle?

Wow, that was some timing. I suggest you check the post directly above yours.

Don't worry about it. It took me a while to figure it out. Unfortunately that model is the closes they have to a straight on view. So what do ya think, ready to print?
Oh and thanks for all the constructive criticism

Awesome! I just placed the order, and it should be in within 12 business days. I'll be sure to post pics when it comes in.

It is overpriced for a stunt hat that's got damage and tape residue on it. Hopefully it just won't sell and will be reduced to a price nearer to it's actual value. Some of the items on the facebook page have been priced now, some seem like ok prices and some seem quite overpriced for what they actually are.
Even if nobody even wanted to buy any of the screen used stuff all the close up detalied pictures she's taken are really useful for people wanting to find or make replicas. Especially on the custom made stff like the t-shirts and scotts hat.
