While I don’t have a horse in this race… The above is not true though. If you want to generalize and omit “one offs”, Obey prints are usually packed “paper out”. There is an occasional print that is packed “image” out, but those are outliers in the grand scheme of things. Not that it really matters.
That is all. Lol.
in the few years i was helping friends with obey all the screen prints i received were rolled between two pieces of kraft paper image side down. probably like 15-20 prints in total. i don't know what else to tell ya.

It appears now we are, lol. Though I don’t believe I had ever seen two pieces of kraft paper from Obey.
Like I said though, not that it really matters, haha.

Both rolled with the printed side out and with the kraft paper rolled up with them, so to remove carefully was interesting.
but you are saying there was a layer of kraft paper between the prints as well?
Especially when they are rolled with the kraft and not within, especially void of tissue...just an odd way of doing it, if not completely asinine.
Trying to reinvent the wheel...no need. It's not broke so don't fix it

The new book looks incredible
Long time no post. Just here to say Nautilus and the Durieux family have awful customer service and you should think twice before buying anything from them.
Bought Halloween from them on the drop. Late last week got an email from Thomas saying they got the tube returned by USPS.
Thomas asked for me to pay for shipping again. I gave them my correct address, USPS made no delivery attempt for some unspecified reason. I can only assume Nautilus goofed up the label or customs docs somehow.
I declined to pay another international shipping charge for someone else's screwup and Thomas refunded me for the print only and not the additional 32 euros for the shipping that i paid for.
Not a huge amount of money to be sure, but just wanted to let you to know to think twice before buying prints from these folks.

Good thing thing you posted your issue here. If had shared in the LD Facebook Group, the piling on would be epic.

It is, yeah.
Kind of stinks to be asked to pay 32 Euro again when you've done nothing wrong. Then to also only be refunded the print cost and not the original shipping charge.

Pretty bush league and petty to not refund the shipping cost. I remember them making a big stink about not being responsible for loss or damage in transit, and if you want coverage you need to purchase insurance separately. My CC is my insurance, thank you, it's on the seller to deliver the goods.
When I'm done ranting about elite power that rules the planet under a totalitarian government that uses the media to keep people stupid, my throat gets parched. That's why I drink Orange Drink. - BH
