How about to Donkey Boat it? I hope I'm using that expression right?

How about to wait on Ebay after you just slapped down $2,500 for a print you thought was actually available?

3. Its a charity. unless you are a republican, your money is in good hands ;) Welcome to politics.
Moveon.org in not a charity. It is a hugely partisan propaganda machine that is on the same level as swiftvote (except worse). They don't care about anything or anyone except their specifc agenda. They are scum

If you want to contribute to a real charity, there are 100s of them around the country, your church and in your neighborhood....and please don't forget your local foodbank with the state of the economy and Thanksgiving coming up soon...that is where your money can truely make a difference

I really doubt amany are buying posters to support moveon.org....that is just where the money is going too (unfortunately)

It is not Tax deductible, but based on what evidence do you make the claim that
is on the same level as swiftvote (except worse). They don't care about anything or anyone except their specifc agenda. They are scum
MoveOn runs issue advertisements, registers voters, and conducts GOTV efforts on the behalf of left of center voters. You might oppose the issues they represent, but its uncalled for to call them scum or to compare them to the Swiftboat Veterans for truth who blatantly lied in their advertisements on the behalf of the powerful.

Why would you even want this poster if you consider MoveOn to be "scum"?

maybe the 5-7 week window is for those people who got tricked as the ebay listings were only saying this is unsigned version and not saying it ALSO is the unnumbered open edition can put claims due to ebays pre-order 30 day policy. I spoke of this to a few people who had gotten duped and they all got their money back as it was a sneaky move by those sellers not listing exactly what people were buying. If you list all the details and someone wants to pay then Congrats to you but just do it right. Remember Karma always comes back to slap the taste out your mouth!!!!!

I dont know, but I was always taught that telling someone they have bad karma is bad karma.

Nope just dont like it when people are misleading and trying to rip people off. If your selling the open edition list it that way. I see plenty of them listed in the title or subtitle "open edition" selling for $100 and I have no grips with that but to those who are listing it in a misleading way yes I have a problem with that, so you thinking my doing is wrong says a lot about your character my friend.

Fairey's Obama art is in talks to be featured at the Smithsonian. That can't hurt the value of any of his prints. Obama will be the first in office President to be featured there.
