Beware of Counterfeits: Our Posters Are Only Sold Through Official Channels

At Myretroposter, every poster we create is the result of countless hours of artistic work, travel, editing, and passion. Unfortunately, as our popularity grows, so do the attempts to steal our work. We’ve recently discovered that some of our designs are being offered online by unauthorized sellers or fraudulent websites. This article is here to help you identify real vs. fake listings and understand why it's so important to buy only from official sources.

1. Our Posters Are Only Sold on Myretroposter.com and Through Approved PartnersWe want to make it clear: our art prints areonly available on our official website (myretroposter.com), in ourSitges gallery, and in a small selection oftrusted boutiquesthat are clearly identified on our channels. If you see one of our posters on another platform at an unusually low price, it isnot an authorized listing.

Buying from unknown sellers means taking a risk: not only are these listings illegal, but you may never receive anything, or worse, get a low-quality copy that disrespects the art and misleads buyers.

2. Why It Matters: Counterfeiting Hurts Artists and CustomersWhen you buy from unauthorized sites:

• Youencourage networks that steal from artistsand mass-produce without any quality control.
• You oftenpay for a product that is never shipped, or shipped withpoor materials, wrong sizes, pixelated images, or folded in envelopes.
• Youlose the guarantee of quality: our posters are printed on demand with museum-grade inks and archival paper, in 8 sizes and limited editions.

Our pricing reflects the care and craftsmanship that go into each piece. Wenever offer heavy discounts or flash sales, because our work isnot stock-clearing merchandise, it's printed one by one, especially for you.

If you see a poster sold atone-third of our price or less, it’s not a bargain, it's a scam.

3. How to Spot a Counterfeit ListingSome tips to recognize fraudulent or fake websites:

• The poster is offered at a suspiciously low price (often under 15€ or 20€).
• The site looks generic or hosts thousands of random products.
• There’s no clear artist attribution, no detailed product info, or fake reviews.
• The titles or descriptions are poorly translated.
• The checkout page doesn’t mention shipping origin or customer support.
• Even if the seller uses our names, collection titles, or links to our real pages, it doesn’t mean they are authorized. This is a common trick used by counterfeit platforms to appear trustworthy.

If you’re ever in doubt, pleasesend us a messagewith the link. We’ll gladly tell you if the seller is legitimate.
