EMEK Sigur Ros Anticipation Thread

[Bobby-B]

what time did you email him? I sent mine at 12:10 with that same answer and didn't get shit!

12:10?

wow. looks like the skipped over u. thats shitty.

The question was only good for 1 hour. If it started at 10:05am it was only good till 11:05am. That is a rough estimate on when it started.

I sent mine at 10:15:42 and afterwards I checked EB and saw that people had posted the answer publicly in the forums before I had sent my email, I figured I was SOL cause the answer was out in the open for the easy taking. Guess not!

edit: 10:10:42 was my time oops

i had sea nettle jellyfish too at the 10.10 mark


oh well. at least i got a signed fairy yesterday:)

Just checked my email... i got one!!! Pretty sure mine went in about 10.12 ...but how accurate are email times between different ISPs and time zones. Is it true the chosen ones get the variants??

[fluffhead13]

local times, not PST.

[edgar]

Is it true the chosen ones get the variants??

you tell us...is that what your email said?

[fluffhead13]

not if he only asked for $85. congrats on your new 14 color silkscreen. Feels good huh? I had that feeling once. I'll never forget it,

Doesn't actually say.. i was just playin

[Vigilant]

Damn, thought for sure I was on the quick draw.


Oh well, there will certainly be more opportunities to play this game.

I wonder how many of the same people get his prints every single sale? a lot is my guess..........

Why he doesnt implement a sales program that disqualifies you if you purchased his last print- I have no idea.

It would increase his scope of his patrons and force the flippers to make choices or use more complicated methods of scoring (which would only decrease the flipping - to some extent)

Really like to see him do this- at least for a couple sales

emek is just a man

[Grateful69Phish]

emek is just a man

very true....... but he seems to care to some extent, changes methods of sales, telling folks peoples orders will be cancelled and stay tuned ect.

TOTALLY understand, dreams are not reality and nobody tells Emek how to run his business but its just makes sense to me.

Emek is THE man

I am on dial-up (let the laughter begin) so I don't expect to get anything, and never do. But I only try for the prints that I actually like so this plan wouldn't impact me at all.

[jojobadass]

people still flip emeks?

[justbehmh]

was that scrolling thingy on his home page the same as yesterday? never saw it yesterday too busy F5ing.

[Grateful69Phish]

people still flip emeks?

I think the answer to that question lies in how people keep it for more than 30 days or so-

Less than half IMO................. so Im not sure if that answers it for you.

Does for me, still too many and if the main inspiration for these price hikes is flipping, then how about thinking about the people who actually kept his work and can't afford $100 a copy now.

I had the correct answer sent at about 10:13 PST and nothing

for your information.......
