No email, no tweet, no post. Totally random it appears.

What's the record of a sitting release? Was the Slightly Stoopid up for longer?

Was waiting for that one to be released, but oh well. Don't really need both of them.

Has the Dead Dictionary print actually been released online yet? The website has me all kinds of confused, and I want a copy of that.

I don't think so. I've been checking it everyday just about since it went up on there. The typewriter went up without any mention so my guess is these will be the same.
I'm not someone else.

Hasn't been released online. With ebay prices as high as they are, wouldn't be surprised if it remains a wishlist or show only offering.

Their were a few available at his last Poboy show here in Portland and they flew out the door @ $200/unframed.

My modest frame up to whet the appetite in the mean time....

I heard he only brought part of the run to TRPS and it was a HOT commodity so much so that he was selling copies
he didn’t have there to people and sending them in the mail to them at a later date. Doubtful any make it online.

Emek is all about the cash too, so I’d agree we won’t likely see those dictionary prints online. They’re cool and all, but man people lap that GD stuff up. Bah humbug.

I put in a wish list request for one about a month ago. My crossed fingers are beginning to cramp up.

correct me if i'm wrong here...or if i missed anything.

emek puts the sale on hold because his mat supplier is dry.

he sells a few at a show.

they sell like hotcakes so he takes more orders at the show with the promise to ship later.

EBers are impatient and pay dumb prices on ebay.

emek sees this and decides to sell them behind the scenes for a fudge ton more than the $50 he planned on selling them for originally.

sound about right?
