Honest question, is it because of the embossed paper on letterpress ?

Because the tiny prints are place between two thin pieces of cardboard and just shoved into a thin cardboard envelop. The tiny prints are poorly packed and are shipped first class mail.IronBott wrote:Ok then how come Josh Keyes tiny showcase are shipped flat for 5$ intl ?fribhey wrote:It takes much longer to pack a print flat than it does rolled.

The obey letter presses are individually wrapped, taped down to a thick piece of cardboard, sandwiched between another piece of cardboard, which is also taped together, and put into a thin box. They are also shipped priority.
Shipping materials, and postage, used by obey are more expensive and they spend more time properly packing the letterpress prints.
Where are the instructions for unpacking the letterpresses doe?!fribhey wrote:they started adding the instructions this past Julycharter wrote:When did obey start sending an email order confirmation with how to unwrap prints for dummies?

2) twist box until tape starts to peel up.
3) quickly rip tape off
4) open box, remove packed print and repeat steps 1-3 to remove print

I believe there was numerous complaints regarding that topic in several TS Josh releases- thin cardboard mailer with a kiss of goodluck

Unfortunately I’ve never tried on my mobile. Was at work too, actually delayed a meeting as at my desk to try to catch it. Good to be the boss at times. Didn’t need it but was kind of pissed I missed some of the recent drops I liked it enough to try this way. It was much better than PayPal, for me. Even when I set up PayPal ahead of time it would hold me up at times, Chrome & CC = +1aldobishalini wrote:Can you do this with Chrome mobile too?

Luls. They always find the weirdest answers.

with the language optics and golden, the right side seems like a sunglasses ad.
pay via paypal, use credit card,file dispute at the 20 day mark if suspicious. don't deal with noobs. don't trade with noobs. request feedback ahead of time. there are lots of good people 'round here.
