I live in Santa Cruz and I'm so freaking jealous you own The Lost Boys jacket's. So glad you have them on total display. They went to a good home. 😊

[@mattmontgomery8999]

Screw them, Sean! If they want to be petty, it makes them look bad when you let all of your viewers know their business practices. Keep on doing you, bro!

[@ebaymandavid723]

It’s terrible that propstore still won’t issue you those COAs, but great to know you have all the paperwork saved that you bought such. Plus, it’s an extra added bonus that you know Kiefer, Billy & Alex for further authenticity of those jackets! I love Marko’s jacket the best! 🦇🤘

[@canamrider07]

My neighbor, when I lived In Valencia, was the actual prop guy for Poltergeist. He had one of the clowns used in the movie.

[@er1cmaurer]

I’d get all the actors in a vid and make your own COA’s and have them sign every one. Besides, it would be damn near impossible to make that patch jacket. They’re obviously legit.

[@ianzukswert3185]

I'm hoping and a praying that things will work out and that those COA's come your way. You have an amazing collection from what I have seen...happy collecting and happy new year Sean 🙂

[@bobcalderon2534]

I am sorry you got screwed. It's a crazy world out there. I am sorry you've gone thru it. Happynew year.😊

[@dustinplemmons]

Already great seeing videos of your amazing collection! Love the jackets but I was also admiring that Black Christmas one sheet lol

[@Thearchivescd]

Pretty awesome stuff! Can’t believe they did that to you! Love watching all the collections and stories as well as the film locations. Keep it up man!

[@steventopping106]

This seems crazy to me with the amount of money been spent! This videos made me look hhrough the rest of the series thiugh on another note! Youve some amazing pieces Sean 😍

If he keeps making videos about them after refusing to follow their guidelines he's going to need to get a lawyer alright

Sweet collection. Happy holidays.

No worries bro You still have the Best collection of merchandise and memorabilia than anyone else I have ever seen! And your home videos Rock It’s their loss

[@Jayhawk9]

Dude I love everything about the lost boys movie. You getting those jackets are so damn cool. The marko jacket is my favorite

[@funkymonkstemple]

Sean, you're such a cool dude and a FANTASTIC ambassador to the collector community. I love your videos and your collection. As far as I'm concerned, and if anybody asks, Prop Store is persona non grata.

[@EMOTIONBIGLIFE]

Love these vids, you make it easy to watch, fun and inteligent. Thnx again from faraway Europe.😊

[@Carusone_Daniel]

They look great! Sorry you went through that, seems like they are being childish about the whole deal. You’re the bigger man in this. Really enjoyed the update Sean, I hope you get your Christmas wish bro🤘🏻

[@dixierae3442]

Sean I know it stings but nothing can take away from the fierceness of these 4 Iconic pieces. A big shout out to the viewer who hooked you up to make these jackets correct. Now that's a legit fan. Would love to pick their brain. By the way I believe in Karma. She always waits to set things right. She likes to teach lessons that people will remember. Peace for 2024 ❤

[@TheFaustianMan]

Such a beautiful collection.

[@bryanbaughart7677]

Sorry to hear about the frustrating, poor customer service from Prop Store. But your videos are great. This subculture of movie prop collecting is truly fascinating to us movie geeks!

[@henrybottieri7816]

Those jackets are awesome! Hope they make it right and send you what you rightfully should receive.

[@AdamtheGrey02]

So they're costing the sellers money because of their personal bias toward individuals. That should piss off the sellers big time.

[@The_Tome_of_Reckoning]

They must hate money with how much you've spent there. Keep up the Killer work Sean!

[@youtubefilmvisionary67]

Awesome lost Boys Jackets& signed poster !! To never know you would 1 Day own them ....Mind Blowing! ...looks like the Auction house is a take it or leave place but they know yll take it right

[@michaelhoward6663]

Good luck with the quest for COAs. Never could understand why people do business like that. You spend money with them, apparently quite a bit, you'd think they would want more of it. Guess not. Hope you had a great Xmas. Looking forward to a New Year of Hallowed Grounds and more.

[@pinstripedynasty6117]

Pathetic. One of the worst things when you want and have the money to get ultra rare stuff and miss it on some bs like this. I truly feel for you bro. I can not believe they are doing this with the COA's beyond infuriating

[@ymme111]

Hey Sean! Ever consider going into the prop auction business yourself? Something to consider. You have lots of connections in Hollywood. Put The Prop Store out of business!

[@dorian_al3xander741]

[@tricktreat6934]

So glad they are in a true Fan's collection my friend.

[@GhoulishExpeditions]

A Jason Lives mask would be a pretty epic prop for The Collection. Just re-watched that one recently. It's a good time.

[@base1b2626]

Come on Prop Store you need to get Sean his stuff for him. Love all your Stuff Sean

[@cancelbubble6535]

If you know any web developers they can come over and literally inspect the network traffic during a future bid. Find something really cheap and get in early where you think you'd be outbid. They'd want to inspect the response traffic from the bid request. There are standard error codes for what are called http requests (which is the network request/response). As an example, in your case, if you were really banned, I would be sending back a 403 code which is a "forbidden" status. You'd also want to do the same thing with a separate account (have a friend then login) and see what comes back in their bid. Then you'd have something, otherwise it's all speculation. I know nothing about the collector world you're in, but seems really odd they wouldn't have had the COAs when you picked up the merchandise.

[@JOSHSHORRDERCORNER]

“Principal” is an interesting thing in this hobby. It really doesn’t seem to be taken seriously enough and that’s been one of my biggest gripes of collecting

[@somelikeithot444]

It is such ashame Sean.U r right it is the principle of it all.Good luck in the future. He doesn't disserve yr business.

[@thedude2897]

Prop Store didn't do me well either. I bought an expensive costume, paid the crazy high shipping cost by crate. It shows up and the costume has a tear in it. They knew darn well it was there and failed to disclose it. The costume was packed very well so it wasn't damaged in transit. They just gave me back 10%. It's something I've wanted for years so not like I was about to say take it back. They also owed me some on the shipping cost as they shipped a cheaper way. They said the cost was close to the actual shipping so they refunded me the amount and a little more which was nice, but I looked at the label and it was prepaid and had numerous discounts so I know darn well it didn't cost anything near what I paid. I almost didn't get a coa either. Nothing was shipped with the costume/display. They only sent it after I contacted them about it.

[@catherineaw143]

Those people suck Sean! You were a great customer, I remember the drama of CoA ‘s video you did.

[@kylebaker1419]

I agree 100 percent on that collective ng is small groups. As an autograph collector too but no where near the magnitude of your collection. There was a small group of us that bounced from Facebook group/company to company. It was quite funny.

[@gremlinsmuseum]

This is pretty funny....glad you laid it out there.

[@patrickellis3338]

It's cool that you have all the jackets from the Lost Boys , totally cool.

[@lude4u2nv]

such a baddass collection..when i was in highschool in the mid 90s bay area, one of my HS teachers was an extra in the lost boys..it was during the tim cappelo scene..

I wonder what it went for 🤔 Speaking of certificates, I have to talk to Nikos about the certificate for my #21 SC 75 Myers mask lol I forgot all about that. That mask is incredible. By the way Sean I really appreciate your involvement. It’s my crown jewel of my Myers collection 🎃🔪

[@patrickdonahue777]

Sean - it sounds like you just have a content blocker in your browser interfering with the button being able to open the page. It happens to me all the time when ordering things. Go into settings and select "turn off content blockers" and I bet that will work...

[@sethwollenschlaeger8332]

I feel that you should start your own prop and memorabilia auction house . All the sellers would use you

[@somersfamily]

This is ridiculous, man. I'm sorry. By the way, I saw you at spookala in Tampa and really wanted to say hi, but you were very busy it looked like. But hopefully, we can say hi at the next one. But this is ridiculous. They should be shamed of their selfs

[@mikestryper1053]

Who does the version of cry little sister playing in the backround? Amazing you have those jackets even with coa drama.

[@martinedwards4522]

got a hunch the pressure applied through publicity will soften them up

[@UnboxerofWorlds]

Hey Sean, is there any chance you would make a video about how to get into the screen used prop collecting hobby for beginners?

[@malfuncsean]

Perhaps I could do something like that.

[@rickytoddbotelho9555]

Never heard of anything like this before 😢😂❤

[@luciendesar]

Just playing devil's advocate I have heard of this issue before (where you try to purchase or bid and it doesn't work- it's happened with Ticketmaster for users). It could be an issue on their servers or something wrong with you browser. It could be a shadow ban, but that would be more trouble for them to code that to happen instead of just canceling your account. Since they have a history of being lazy and not sending you the COAs I border on the side that their servers need to be patched or load balancing is an issue.

[@angelalinderman9985]

Wow Sean that's BS you are a true horror fan to the core and they are treating you like shit. I don't get it! Like you said its a small group who buys these items. Sorry 😟 Hopefully COA will come through soon. You deserve it. Happy Holidays buddy 👍🎄✌️💜

[@BoogeyManBen]

That’s bulls**t Sean. That’s so petty prop store did that. The setup you have for the jackets is incredible. Fantastic display. You are a good dude and I don’t like the way you were done by prop store.

I'm sure if you took them to small claims court, you would get your COA's. Regardless of what has already transpired, they legally owe them to you. It was part of the sale. That's what I would do.

[@andyphillips3518]

I Love you Sean and Love your channel and always will do. But I understand that Prop Store can’t issue another COA in this instance unfortunately.

[@malfuncsean]

Easy solution that all of these auction houses should already implement especially with the large percentages they take from each auction is much like the COA companies use in the autograph world. Each COA should be put in an on-line database and be assigned a specific document number. That way if a COA is ever lost or destroyed the old number could be voided and listed as such and then issued a new number.

[@crush41gb]

They've screwed you over on so many things. It's their mistake and it will come back on them. I'm sorry you have to deal with this jazz.

[@saltyscorpion2151]

Maybe a letter from a lawyer. For that kind of money it's worth it.

[@Padlock85]

Sean, I know it’s unrelated but can you PLEASE give “Class of 1984” some love? I saw the beautiful one sheet in the background, would love to know more. Did you also do a filming location when you were in Canada last summer? Inquiring minds (me) want to know.

[@systemmonitor5295]

He's wearing the shirt in his Killer Klowns collection vid!

[@jeffbingham6660]

Would you be able to get a coa from another company? Since you are very public about the collection would that not be enough evidence for the future

[@chr3ist0ina]

Idk how far you are from the auction house but do you think if you brought the jackets with each actor signing a letter stating that these are the original jackets, plus your proof of purchase and showed them in person, then do you think they may give you the COA. This is just a suggestion.

[@malfuncsean]

Their argument is that they already issued me a COA and I can’t have more than one COA for the same prop although I destroyed it and sent it back to them.

[@georges8200]

Question, since Alex Winters confirmed on camera these are legit do you REALLY need the coa from them ?

[@wavy-vh9xb]

They sound like the type company that likes the nerd money, but doesn't want to deal with nerd expectations of proper treatment. I wouldn't let it go. Start a campaign to embarrass them.
