Backdrop Question - Pricing

[chemqueen]

I found these backdrops on ebay, and am wondering if they are a good deal? Appears this seller has a local shop in Dallas I can pick them up at and nix the shipping charges, just wondering if ~$50 is a good price for a 10x13 backdrop as I've never bought one. Any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks!

BTW - sorry, I think I may have found a better place for posting this in a different part of the forum. Will make sure its there for any future questions.

From what I have seen, the prices seem really good. I made one myself for about $30 and a few hours spent hemming and dying. For $50 I would probably just let someone else do all the work. Especially the hand painted ones.

I bought some - they were terrible. You can see through them, and I wasn't able to return them, and ended up having to buy new ones and lost $100 from trying these.

You're just resurrecting all these old posts huh? I bought umbrella kits through discountbulbs on ebay and I have no complaints. Their return policy does state that they don't accept returns on open muslin backdrops.
